HVITHAMMAR

View from Hvithammar looking into Funningfjørður

My previous post was from Funningur. Above Funningur, up in the mountains, there is a fabulous viewpoint. In one direction we look west inwards through Funningfjørður and in the other direction we look out towards the sound between Eysturoy and Kalsoy. We were blessed with fabulous light and the first image above here shows the sun rays lighting up the mountains including the one in the foreground to the right. And the sky was as often in the Faroes quite dramatic.

The second image is captured at a similar viewpoint and direction, but the sun appeared behind the mountain and clouds just enough to so show a burst against the darker clouds and the mountain. At the bottom right you can just see the village of Funningur, where I photographed the church in my previous post.
In the other direction we are looking out towards Kalsoy and behind Kalsoy you can see the mountains of Kunoy. The sidelight sculpts the mountains on Kalsoy.

After our morning at Hvithammar we drove down again towards Funningur. Just above the village we stopped to capture the view below here.
