Photo spot

When doing some research for a photo journey through Norway, I came across a scene that looks absolutely breath taking. The place: Lysefjord, in Ryfylke, near Haugesund. The two main attractions being Preikestolen and Kjerag.

The Preikestolen is a giant mass of rock that plateaus 604 meters over the Lysefjord. The giant rock is said to be approximately 600 square meters. That one impressive rock.

The Kjerag is an even larger than the Preikestolen. It towers over all the peaks along the Lysefjord, at 1,084 meters above the fjord. Once you have completed the hike to the top, the Kjeragbolten is a popular subject to be photographed. It is a round rock solidly wedged in a mountain crevice.

These are two sights I would love to one day visit and photograph. Upon finishing my shoot, I would be sure to base jump off them and possibly get some unique shots along the way.
