Hello Gunnar,
Great capture of these visitors striding toward this tourist attraction. I like the view of the red roofed buildings through the darkened trees. A well presented image with very good colours and sharpness.

Hello Gunnar,

This is a delightful shot - almost a "personal" one with friends or people included. It also owes a lot of its appeal to the lovely lighting.

The lighting on the old farm (now a café) is bright and contrasts well with the shaded area into which this little group are walking. Yet the people themselves are brightly lit and stand out well against their darker background.

Lovely vibrant colours, perfect exposure and, as always, exquisite details and sharpness. A fine composition too.

Lovely!

Kind Regards,

John.

Hej Gunnar,
Här lyckades du fĺ med lite av varje: människor och en hund, gott om färger med rött bĺde fram och bak, och en sagoboksliknande naturlig tunnel som leder fram till ljuset kring den gamla gĺrden. Väldigt välkomponerat och snyggt. Om inte den här lockar tittare är det nĺgot fel pĺ TE.
Hälsningar,
Gert
PS jag är inte säker pĺ att det finns ett sĺnt ord som i titeln...

Have a nice WE.

marabu61 (11587) 2013-07-20 9:36

Hej Gunnar
A sight so iconic for Sweden with the red farmhouses in the distance. One has a distinct feeling of walking together with the group of people towards the house, where a cup of coffee and a cake is waiting.
I must say that I miss the scandinavian summer this year a bit, we will be able to go to Finland only in October this year.

Beautiful countryside landscape! And looks like a nice place to go for a walk. I like the tunnel effect provided by the trees. Good details. Well done, tfs.

ourania (51103) 2013-07-20 13:58

Hello Gunnar,
an effective and delightful presentation of this shady path that leads to the farm. It's lovely that you have such an interesting foreground with the people and their dog filling the width of the path and offering a fine sense of movement. Their destination ahead fills the background with picturesque details and vivid colours. I like very much the fresh and natural colours both in the sunshine and the shade. It's great that there's light at the start of the view, a very effective detail for the whole composition. The sense of depth is superb. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a lovely Sunday,
Ourania

Hi Gunnar,
Pleasant photo of this family walking in the forest. The red trousers instead of red shirt this time.
I plan to go to France in September, so I look at the photos on TE and I am amazed your France map is all yellow. You were everywhere! Quite incredible. I was not everywhere even in Poland :(. I must follow your example.
have a beautiful Sunday

Hello Gunnar,

Shall, we share a stroll down this leafy lane with the family. To take a back view is always a good way to tempt viewers to follow.
The leads are so well managed and the you have provided a colourful objective for our endeavours.

My warm regards,
Bev :-)

A sunny week to you both! Take care!

Hello Gunnar,
the trees seem to be providing a guard of honour for the two bright reddish triangles and of course the walkers. A pleasant summer scene with summery colours.
best regards,
Bev

Hello Gunnar. When I see the photo, I think of the many well-known hiking songs. Nothing is more beautiful than the common hiking. Experience nature and feel good - that is the motto here. Yes, I really like this photo because it fulfills a basic human need.
Rgds, Wolfgang.

Hej Gunnar,
Light is well in control both on shadow and sunshine. Background buildings are nicely framed with the big trees, branches reaching downwards.
That groups shows relaxed, unhurried feeling well.

Hello Gunnar,

This is a very nice shot, I like the relaxing atmosphere showing people just our enjoying a nice day walking around, stop at the cafe for a refreshment. Excellent detials as the people walking under the canopy of hugh trees toward the old barnes with bright red, which contrast very well to dark shadow area of the tree branches. Very delight image.

Hi Gunnar
An attractive scene people going about their routine and the essence of local life of a simple image but no less absorbing, It's the colours obvious delight that really draws my eye. Nicely taken shot, Congrats
Best regards

serp2000 (47063) 2013-08-08 23:46

Hej, Gunnar,
Today I also can say I was in Scania.;) Unfortunatelly, one day only.
Good presentation of a folk museum, original PoV, I like the FG and BG here. Impressive contrast between so dark forest and a sunny farm.
Best wishes,
Serghei

UlfE (14641) 2013-08-16 12:39

Hej Gunnar,

En väldigt fin bild där min direkta känsla var att detta är Skĺne. Bilden är oerhört välkomponerad och du har hanterat konstrasten mellan mörkt och ljust perfekt. Kul hur du har fĺngat personerna mitt i steget. Jag konstaterar ocksĺ att ett per röda shorts fungerar lika bra som en röd tröja som blickfĺng. Ha en bra helg!

Hälsningar

Ulf

PaulVDV (62846) 2013-09-01 15:12

Hello Gunnar,
The picture is well composed and has a beautiful tunnel effect.
Thanks to the dark overhanging branches the red facades of the farm get even more attention.
Nice area for a stroll in the nature.
Best regards, Paul

boa (8039) 2013-11-03 9:45

Hej Gunnar,
om det ändĺ kunde vara sommar igen:) Den här bilden fĺr mig att längta tillbaka till det härliga vädret vi hade bara för nĺgra veckor sen. Bra sug i bilden där det röda partiet i huset omedelbart fĺngar blicken genom öppningen bland träden. Jag hade absolut stannat där för en fika och jag är frestad att tro att personerna pĺ bilden ocksĺ gör det. Mänsklig närvaro i foton ökar oftast intresset. I övrigt ett bra djup och hög trivselfaktor.

Hälsningar.
Boa

Hi Gunnar,

You're capturing well this scenery by a good composition and excellent tone/clarity, so it's interesting and impressive to see the wood surrounded by the deep greenery, the family walking the path and lovely houses with red roof side and tasteful design. The family look like go to café after the strolling. The whole is harmonized well by a good arrangement and the beautiful color combination.

Kind regards,
mikio

Good morning Gunnar,
nice the snapshot with the company to walk on the earthy road going to the popular café as we can see on the backdrop of the image.The whole place must be very attractive as closing in it and the folk museum of the district.

Have a good Sunday,Danos
