Wonderfully done. Iris. You have really captured the beauty of this park.
And you've added to it with your images of real people among the sculptures.
Bravo!

What a prolific sculptor! Gustav Vigeland is a huge talent as demonstrated by this huge collection of his huge sculptures captured beautifully by your petite hands. I loved seeing his work but what I loved best is how you so descriptively captured the sculptural forms as well as the negative space surrounding the forms, as in Time to Die, Playful, Joy, Responsibility, Surrender, Frolic, Wrath, The Dance and Punt, especially the green shape at the bottom. Good job I!

Beautiful pictures of beautiful sculptures. I especially like the shots with real people among the stone ones! Your photos show me why Tim is so infatuated with this park!

These are powerful sculptures. I can see why Tim finds it so special. Your photos put me right in Frogner Park with their pure beauty. "Humanity" is especially moving. I can feel the chill in the air.
