Again taken with the kit lens. We experienced some wonderful light on the way down again to Bergen. The only hindrence being the lack of it for most of the day.

Another one of my favourites from the Norway trip and taken with the 18 - 55 kit lens. I hear so much moaning about this lens but I find very good. This was the only zoom I took with me on the journey, the rest being primes ranging from 15 to 135. Strangely enough I didn't touch the 135 at all. I didn't think I could hold it in the cold and strong wind. Remember, the Nex cameras don't have IBIS.

This is one of my favourite images from the whole trip. I've left the blue in the image attempting to give the impression of cold it really was out on deck. Many a time I had to go back inside too warm my fingers and the camera. As a side note, I didn't once have a problem with either the Nex-7 or the Nex-5N during the whole trip, and that was in temperatures reaching -25C. I don't think the cameras will experience those temperatures again.

We had some terrible weather heading north. This image is typical of the low cloud cover we had with some very heavy rainfall. I converted this to B&W in SFX2 to better show the clouds that were just rolling over us. Nex-7 with the CV 15 f4.5.

Having to post process the purple colour out of these photographs was a lot of work. Very time consuming. It was well worth it though. This is a squall that we were sailing parallel to. I'm glad I wasn't in it. It was freezing and I'm sure the rain was also.

Again with the Nex-7 and CV 15 f4.5. We noticed that quite a few houses were built on rocky islands out in the middle of nowhere. I couldn't for the life of me think why except that it may be a summer house. I don't think anyone could live there in the winter.

Taken with the Nex-7 fitted with the Voigtlaender Heliar 15 f4.5 lens. I know it doesn't look like it but I could hardly hold the camera still as the wind was gusting heavily. I took a number of shots here to make certain that one came out ok. This is the only half decent one I managed out of 9 shots. It was also bitterly cold up here. This lens is fine but, I won't use it on the Nex-7 any more because of bad colour shift. By that I mean that not only were the corners purple (fixable with a program caller Cornerfix), but both sides were purple. It took me quite some time to fix it in post processing.
