On this day the waves were reaching higher than normal, and i found this perfect rock shelf leading to the iconic Skolmen Mountain in the background.

The rocky coast at Utakleiv beach in Lofoten islands with its famous mountain silhouette in the background. Being a 50s exposure, I liked how the movement of the clouds, blue color cast and dark tones all created a threatening mood. This image required a great deal of very fine dodging & burning to get the most of the shiny rocks in the foreground and also some additional tricks to make the scene look as I had envisioned it.

A panorama of three horizontal shots taken from Uttakleiv beach in Lofoten islands. The rocky beach was full of interesting textures but I was struggling with the light as there were absolutely no low clouds to block the direct sunlight. So I had to wait until very last moment to capture the sunset or use some obstacles like I did here. In the end it turned out fine with the sharp sunburst behind the rock with zero flares and nice golden light at the edges of the frame.
