The Natural Beauty of Scandinavian Countries: Norway and Denmark by Jolly Sienda Photography and Studio

August 4, 2023

Sailing away on a 14-day Norwegian Fjord cruise, July 2023, was a BIG check on my travel bucket list. My adoptive grandfather, D. Steen, immigrated to the United States in 1906 from Norway for a better life, and I used to hear stories this far away land. Here are some of my photographs.

Americana Quilt Barn Trails and Grist Mills are Picture Perfect

July 29, 2020

Quilt barn trails are a slice of Americana. They are dotted across the United States from Washington and Oregon, following the settlers of the west to America’s farms and bread basket in Ohio, Indiana, Pennsylvania, and in the southern states too. Per Wikipedia 43 states have quilt barn trails. Below are quilt patch barns located in Washington State; along the Quilt Barn Ellensburg Trail, unique barns on the East Coast and a iconic Mabry Grist Mill. Images by Jolly Sienda Photography.
