travelers stories about Mountain range in Flakstad Municipality, Norway

Mountain range in Flakstad Municipality, Norway

  11 km from Ballstad


This is the aurora from Flakstad beach on the Lofoten Islands. You do have to be pretty lucky to have clear skies and aurora in March but we got lucky!! The exposure was 30 seconds with the camera on a tripod just above the ground, dodging the incoming waves on the beach to try and get some reflection off the wet sand. The Lofoten Islands are one of the most amazing places on earth. A photographers paradise :-)

travelers stories about Shore in Myrland, Norway

Shore in Myrland, Norway

  12 km from Ballstad


It was 5:00 am in the morning when i took this picture. We set up our tent the night before, close to Myrland (Nordland) - a beautiful coast in the mid part of Lofoten. It was breathtaking. That atmosphere, the loneliness, feeling the warmth of the sun on your skin. It really lets you forget anything else around you.

Summit in Ryten, Norway

This has to be one of the best views I have ever seen. The hike was so much fun across different terrains, and the views from the top were spectacular, with ever changing weather and the occasional burst of sunlight casting warm tones on the land.

On our fourth day in the Lofoten Islands we climbed Ryten mountain overlooking Kvalvika Beach. A 2 hour hike turned into a 5hr trek through snow reaching our knees. All worth it getting to the top!

Beach in Kvalvika Beach, Norway

Looks like a tropical place isn’t it. But its not, it’s actually a beach located way up in Norway resulting after a hike in Lofoten Islands close to the polar circle. Enjoying the colours and the sun even if its links to climate change.

Hiked quite a bit to get to beach and then started up the drone to get this bad boy. Makes for a nice wallpaper and has a bit of the macOS vibe to it, I think. Enjoy!

travelers stories about Hill in Hamnøy, Norway

Hill in Hamnøy, Norway

  22 km from Ballstad


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. ⛰

Highland in Hamnøy, Norway

  22 km from Ballstad


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.

Glacial landform in Reine, Norway

  23 km from Ballstad


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.
