A famous view with some fresh snow. I have been there many times but always fascinated by these mountains, villages, colors.

This location is from an island in Lofoten (Norway) named Værøy. Many would say this is an isolated and remote place, since official infrastructure to this island is very limited every day, and on Saturdays..absolutely nothing. No ferry, no helicopter (and no planes..there was an airport for some years, but it closed, because weather conditions made it to dangerous to use). Still around 700 people live here.
Isolated and remote maybe..but so beautiful.. Imagine a warm summer day..sunbathing on that beach below me..400 very steep meters below me;)! Image is taken just a few days before polar night, sun was above the horizon for just a few hours.

I just got back from my recent Norway trip and that’s my first work…
The whole thing didn’t seem to start that well because we really got out of luck with the weather..
almost 24/7 with lots of rain and no snow at all 😦 but everyone knows.. you need to try and try and maybe.. if you’re lucky enough you got that really special moment..
but yea.. this one’s from the morning we had to head back to the airport for our flight back to switzerland.. as you guys can see.. finally all the rain turned into snow..
5 minutes before i took this panorama the weather was totally crap.. you could barely see the street in front of you… but we decided to try it anyway.. and holy sh** thank god we did!
suddenly the sky behind me turned into a shiny multicolored thing and the sky in front of me just went really gloomy. the setting moon was just perfect behind the mountains to give a little light into this really dark scene..
I just had to do a 360° Panorama to roughly catch this moment.

Polar night above the polar circle, in other words; the sun is below the horizon 24/7. But…even below the horizon, sun makes light magic.
