About the book
A coffee table book, inspired by Norway.
Norway is a country located in Northern Europe on the western and northwestern part of the Scandinavian Peninsula. Norway’s elongated shape, one of the longest and most rugged coastlines in the world, has the odd 50,000 islands off the extremely indented coastline.
This book illustrates the magnificence of southern Norway stretching from Sogn og Fjordane’s expansive fjords to Bergen’s iconic wharf and Hardangerfjord’s breathtaking waterfalls down to Kristiansund’s plateaus.

With gratitude
For Tanay, my son. Sunny, always.
This book would not exist without my son, Tanay, our Sunny. He helped with the content production, carried the heavy equipment throughout the Norway photography trip, and helped put the book together from the ground up.
Sunny was by my side through my early years in photography, until he went to the US for his studies. He was my right hand behind the camera and played a major role in whatever success I have had. He is valued and loved, today and always.
Sunny, wherever this finds you, thank you. I am proud of you and always wishing you well.
