The E6 bridge over the famous maelstrom, Saltstraumen in Bodø
The landscape unfolds in a play of water, mountains and sky, where the mighty E6 bridge crosses one of nature’s most fascinating forces – the infamous Saltstraumen. In the foreground, green-clad rocks and moss are reflected in the still water, a contrast to the chaotic currents of the river just behind.
Above the horizon, the mountains rest with their snow-capped peaks, partially hidden by a mist that gives the scene an almost dreamlike feel. The white houses on the opposite bank stand as silent witnesses to the eternal dance of the tides – a dance that has shaped the landscape and lured both fishermen and adventurers to the place for generations.
Here, under the bridge, the raw and the poetic merge. The stream roars, the wind whispers, and nature displays its magnificent balance between stillness and movement.
