In search of locations
Posted: 23 Aug 2013 11:37
Hello all,
I'm linked to the Atlantikwall museum Raversyde in Belgium, near Ostend (www.raversyde.be). the museum hired a professional photographer to make artistic photographs from different sites along the entire Atlantikwall, from Norway til the Spanish border. As it is impossible to photograph all the defence works, we want to make sure that we let the photographer take pictures of the "best" ones.
I have been doing some research, but there are so many German defence works in Norway that it's hard to pick a few. So, my question is if you could suggest some locations that the photographer can't miss when visiting Norway!
We're looking for a variety of iconic places. It's not about the biggest guns or bunkers, while they are of course welcome, we're especially looking for those hidden gems. For us the surrounding landscapes are equally important as the bunkers themselves. We're looking for remote sites, sites integrated in modern day society, nice examples of reuse of defence works, rare bunkers, special camouflage,... It's an artistic project, so it's not necessary to have all types of bunkers covered, but a variety would be nice.
I'm very much looking forward to your suggestions!
Thanks in advance,
Benoit
