It's tricky taking photographs out the window of a train moving fast across Norway's forested mountains. You have to identify, aim, pan, focus and fire in that split-second before
a nearby tree or utility pole leaps in front of you and spoils the picture.
A frequent kind of scene in the first third of the trip, often blocked by the nearby trees.
The stations always seem kind of cosy.

Looks like Edward Hopper got here before I did.

This simple church was a favorite.

A snow field -- on June 23, just about the longest day -- above the tree line.

You've done well to get so many well-composed pictures - I'll not ask how many you had to delete! :)
About 80.
A wonderful medley of photos that gives us a good view of the countryside. Each one is a small glimpse into that world.
Great shots Jack and such pretty scenery.
These are fabulous, Jack! Are you heading on a cruise up the coast? I know several people who have done that and they raved about it afterwards.
Magnificent views!
Lovely photographic captures from a moving train. These are not easy to shoot. They are beautiful pictures.
Well, they all look great shots.
