Munken hike, all the way up, got my eye on the magnificent rock layers. You can’t see the end of this peaks it was like being lost in a mountain maze, breathtaking feeling in Lofoten

When you are not really motivated to go down after walking a lot and you see this awesome light separated by the peak of a mountain, it gives you energy back ⚡️

If we are talking about tough hike in Lofoten it’s because you go up very fast, on our way down I’ve realised how high we were when you see the clouds visitings the peaks next to us.

We know the rain forest but what about “Reine forest”, used random plants as a frame to shoot the mountain above Reine and Hamnøy in Lofoten Islands during the sunset to get this soft pinky sky

After a tough 4 hours hike in Lofoten Islands called Munken we managed to catch the sunset on the islands peaks, amazing experience which makes the view worth the effort.

Top of Munken at least, a hike in Lofoten Islands. Tough hike, awesome view with these peaks replication towards the horizon never ending.

Munkebu hut hike is a must do, it is literally like climbing stairs to the Valhalla going from a mountain lake to another and another to this typical Norwegian hut.

On a dock in Hamnøy using the woody frame towards a peak during the sunset, liked the shot and the frame cause it defines the proximity between the fisherman villages and the hikes in Lofoten Islands.

This is the tiny island of Andøya, photographed from just across the water on Reine. If you haven’t heard about the Lofoten Islands already then check them out on-line and you’ll see that they’re eye-popping and wonderful. This picture was taken with a Canon 100-400mm macro borrowed from Chris H (thanks Chris). It’s a big, heavy but awesome lens. Something I’m saving for.

In the middle of the “night” I woke up to the most beautiful light I have ever had the oppertunity to capture within a photograph. A scenery unimaginably vast and raw rounded off the impression and made it one of the most memorable moments of my trip. Adding to the experience was another hiker who surprisingly hiked up the mountain late only to share the same view. I wonder what he’s doing now…I’d love to see the images he took that night!

View over the small island Sakrisøya, situated at the foot of the Olstind mountain peak on the Lofoten Islands, Norway.

This is the classic Lofoten Islands shot but I’m not ashamed of taking it because the sea, sky and mountains are always different throughout each day. This was early evening in late March, there was still plenty of snow around and the evening light was magic. You should visit the Lofotens it’s utterly amazing.

Near Reine, Norway the Eliassen Rorbuer overlooks Moskenesøya. This is just one of many tiny fishing villages between the Lofoten Islands which is a fantastic place to eat or sleep while visiting the Arctic Circle.

Fishing 🐟 is the main activity here in Lofoten and picturing the red houses was on my to-shoot list. Red houses because of the history it’s based on cost, esthetics and social status reasons. Back in the days red was for barns in farms, cheap building but now it just looks gorgeous with the landscape. ⛰

After super long days getting up early and staying out late to catch the northern lights it was nice to relax and wonder through the local town. Hamnøy, lofoten Islands.

During a very rainy day, unable to climb any of the mountains surrounding Reine, we went out for a little roadtrip and, just as we returned, the clouds ripped open for a few minutes when we stopped in Hamnøy to take some pictures. A massivel assault of rain got me seconds after this photograph was captured. I didn’t make the ten metres back to the car without getting soaked to my underwear.
