Another night with poor sleep. So I got up a bit earlier than usual so I've already been out for a walk and to post a couple of parcels.
Low tide this time
Messages on the beach in Norwegian
and English
The beach shelves very gently, the birds just visible in the middle are not floating that are standing on the bottom
And to the left a minute or two later the Swan family

@ninalanyon Quite possibly. I have rudimentary knowledge of geological factors and a more emotional sense of what I feel when I see. But those scenes do deeply remind me of lakes I saw in mountainous regions of Quebec and the features are from how the hills overlook a mountain to the type of stone you would find upon shores of those lakes strikingly resemble. Even to the grasses growing beside the lake.... but they would have similar climates in temperate zones too.
I'm just very taken by the somewhat grey warmth shining upon the lakes where you can feel the echo of the north. Shimmers
@SW-User My knowledge of geological factors is mostly from school geography lessons over fifty years ago. Fjords were one of the more interesting lessons. But of course it was the Norwegian west coast fjords that were used to illustrate the lessons because they are so much more obvious and dramatic. Here on the east cost the fjords are much shallower.

@ninalanyon The ones I saw were a little more dramatic. Let me see if I can find a photograph,
@SW-User That's more like the fjords on the west coast of Norway. Very scenic but it makes travel very difficult if you need to go in a direction that the fjord doesn't.

@ninalanyon That's what I imagined from your words when you spoke of the west coast of Norway. I loved my travels through, as a tourist, I was going down wandering highways between waterfalls falling off mountains, between pastures, very remote rural homes, and then landed upon here.
