Lovely

nice photo

Sure, I know the place is called Leirvik, but it's not exactly wrong to say Stord. I was referring to the boat leaving the island of Stord, not the town of Leirvik.

This wouldn't be considered many chimneys if you're from Great Britain though... they usually have this many chimneys on a single house ;)

If you examine the original size of the photo and look to the right of the far other side, you can see a yellow dumper truck. These trucks are huge and have wheels larger than a man. Just to give an impression of the scale we're talking about here.

Thanks Ben! But I think you have a lot of nice nature in the US too (a different issue is that americans have destroyed much of it with too much logging). Especially WA has some spectacular mountains, and the inland Lake Chelan in Chelan county, WA is said to be reminiscent of Norwegian fjords. Only difference is that in Norway people actually live in these places while in the US almost nobody live in remote areas, in the mountains etc.
