About this picture
It’s hard to wrap one’s head around the real size of mountains and to realize the rock faces come straight out of the ocean.

More Tips on Lofoten Islands from Travelers
Lofoten Islands
- This is one of the countless small fishing huts that are dotted along the shore of Norway’s fjords. This is the Lofotens - a staggeringly beautiful chain of islands in the arctic circle. I worked hard to make sure that the snow wasn’t overexposed and blown out. I also like the fact it isn’t red (though many of the huts are) because it adds to the bleakness of the image.

Lofoten Islands
- This image was taken on the first night camping in the wild of the Lofoten and I could not have been luckier. Veinestinden offers one of the most spectacular views on the whole islands. After the clouds vanished, they gave way to beatiful golden light breaking through. A truly breathtaking moment.
