    Leknes - the start of our journey

    2024年2月17日, ノルウェー ⋅ 🌬 -2 °C

    Our latest adventure took us on a photography tour, a journey that began in Zurich and spiraled into the heart of Norway, culminating in the quaint town of Leknes. The itinerary promised a blend of urban sophistication and pristine natural beauty.

    The Odyssey Begins
    Our journey kicked off in Zurich. From there, we ventured northward, making our way through Oslo, where the charm of Norwegian culture began to seep into our experience. The transition from the urban landscape of Oslo to the rugged beauty of Bodo marked the beginning of our immersion into the Norwegian wilderness.

    The final leg of our travel was a flight to Leknes, a destination that seemed a world away from the cosmopolitan streets of Zurich.

    Leknes: A Symphony of Weather
    After a brief rest at our hotel, eager to explore, we stepped out into the little town of Leknes. This town, nestled in the Lofoten Islands, is a canvas of breathtaking vistas, where every corner promises a perfect snapshot. Our walk was an initiation into what we affectionately dubbed "real Norwegian weather." The day started with the sun casting a golden hue over the rugged landscapes, enhancing the beauty of the town and inviting us to capture its essence through our lenses.

    However, as any seasoned traveler to these northern reaches knows, the weather here is as unpredictable as it is beautiful. Within moments, the sunny skies were overtaken by clouds, and a snowstorm swept through the town. This sudden change was not just a meteorological phenomenon but a dramatic shift in the landscape's character. The snow added a mystical veil to Leknes, transforming it into a winter wonderland right before our eyes.    もっと詳しく

    Journey to Hamnøy: Capturing the Sunset

    2024年2月17日, ノルウェー ⋅ 🌬 0 °C

    Our adventure continued in the afternoon as we traveled to Hamnøy, a destination that embodies the soul of Norwegian coastal life. Leaving behind the unpredictability of Leknes' weather, we found ourselves amidst the serene and rugged beauty of Hamnøy. This small fishing village, with its iconic red fishing huts (Rorbuer) dotting the coastline, presented a picturesque setting that seemed to leap straight out of a postcard.

    Our accommodations in Hamnøy were none other than these traditional fishing huts, transformed into cozy lodgings that blend seamlessly with the landscape. These huts, once the temporary homes of fishermen braving the Arctic waters, now provided us with a unique and intimate connection to the village's heritage.

    The weather, in a gracious mood, afforded us the opportunity to capture some of the most stunning sunset shots of our trip. As the sun dipped towards the horizon, it painted the sky in hues of orange, pink, and purple, casting a warm glow over the sea and the mountains. This moment was a photographer's dream, where every second revealed a new, breathtaking scene. Despite the increasing wind that brought a chill to the air, we were transfixed, our cameras clicking away, eager to capture the ephemeral beauty of the Arctic sunset.    もっと詳しく

    Return to Reine

    2024年2月18日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 0 °C

    After a satisfying breakfast, we eagerly resumed our photo tour in Reine, finding the weather had turned clouded, yet remarkably, it set the stage for stunning reflections. The soft, diffused light brought out the vibrancy of the fjords and the gentle contrast of the surrounding mountains against the now mirror-like waters.

    We explored Reine anew, our lenses focused on capturing the serene beauty that the cloud cover enhanced. The reflections in the water were spectacular, creating a perfect symmetry of the fishing huts and rugged landscapes above and below the waterline. This unique light condition allowed us to capture the essence of Reine in a different mood, one that emphasized tranquility and the subtle interplay of light and shadow.

    Navigating through the village and its surroundings, we took advantage of the calm conditions, finding that each photograph captured not just the visual beauty of the location but also the quiet atmosphere that the clouded sky had lent to the morning.    もっと詳しく

    A Day of Contrasts and Captures

    2024年2月19日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 1 °C

    Our day began with the promise of light, as a beautiful sunrise painted the sky with hues of gold and pink, offering a brief spectacle before the sun retreated behind the advancing clouds. This fleeting light set an optimistic tone for the day, encouraging us to seek out the beauty in the ever-changing Lofoten weather.

    As the sun hid, the clouds cast a soft, diffused light across the landscapes, creating a serene backdrop for our photographic journey. Despite the absence of golden sunlight, the day was rich with photographic opportunities. By afternoon, we found ourselves on a snowy beach, an unusual and captivating scene. The contrast of the pristine white snow against the dark, rugged coastline was striking. Our cameras captured the serene beauty of this landscape, where the elements harmoniously collided.

    The adventure continued as we took to the skies with our drone, soaring over bridges that spanned the icy waters below. The drone offered us a bird's-eye view of the stunning architecture and the dramatic landscapes that surround it. The footage captured not just the physical beauty of the bridges but also the sense of isolation and tranquility that pervades this remote part of the world.

    As the day waned, the sunset we had hoped for turned into a subtle blue hour, a time when the sky is neither fully lit nor completely dark. This magical hour provided a soft, ethereal light, perfect for the climax of our day's exploration. We climbed a small hill, pushing through the cold to reach a vantage point that offered an unparalleled panoramic view of the surrounding area. From this height, the Lofoten Islands unfolded before us in a spectacle of muted blues and greys, a vast and silent world under the soft twilight.    もっと詳しく

    A last "sunrise" at Hamnøy

    2024年2月20日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C

    The day greeted us with less than ideal weather conditions as we awoke to a gray sky, the pristine snow now replaced by persistent rainfall. The transformation of the landscape under the rain's gentle siege initially seemed to dampen our spirits. However, undeterred by the weather's whims, we set out, cameras in hand, ready to embrace the day's challenges.

    Remarkably, the rain brought with it an unexpected gift—the light conditions were in our favor. The overcast sky diffused the light perfectly, eliminating harsh shadows and illuminating the landscapes with a soft, even glow. This gentle lighting allowed us to capture the rugged beauty of the Lofoten Islands in a way that was both unique and compelling. The rain seemed to enhance the colors of the natural world, making the greens of the grass and the grays of the rocks more vibrant and pronounced.    もっと詳しく

    Travelling North

    2024年2月20日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 3 °C

    Amidst our exploration, fortune smiled upon us once more. We spotted a little seal, its sleek, dark figure contrasting beautifully against the muted tones of the surrounding waters. The sight was a delightful reminder of the wildlife that thrives in these harsh conditions, and capturing this moment felt like a small victory against the day's gloomy start.

    As the day progressed and our collection of photographs grew, we decided to venture further, heading to our new location in the east of the Lofoten Islands. The journey itself was a testament to the ever-changing landscapes of this arctic paradise. Each turn brought new vistas into view, from towering mountains shrouded in mist to the vast, open sea, its surface rippled by the falling rain.

    Arriving at our new destination, we were greeted by yet another facet of Lofoten's diverse beauty. The eastern part of the islands promised new adventures and photographic opportunities, a fresh canvas on which to record our experiences. Despite the initial disappointment with the weather, the day proved to be a rewarding exploration of light, landscape, and the unexpected moments that make travel photography so fulfilling.    もっと詳しく

    A Morning of Promise in Uttakleiv

    2024年2月21日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C

    The night's heavy rain, with its relentless downpour, had set a somber tone, leaving us wondering what challenges the next day might bring. However, to our pleasant surprise, the morning dawned far more promising than we had anticipated. The skies cleared, and a sense of optimism filled the air as we prepared for the day's expedition.

    Eager to make the most of the unexpected turn in the weather, we headed out to Uttakleiv, a destination renowned for its dramatic coastline and natural beauty. The beach at Uttakleiv, with its unique combination of smooth pebbles and rugged rock formations, was our canvas for the morning.

    As we set up our equipment, the scene before us was nothing short of spectacular. The waves, energized by the stormy night, crashed onto the shore with a fierce intensity, their spray catching the light and creating a mesmerizing spectacle. Our cameras clicked away, capturing the raw power of nature as each wave collided with the rocks, a testament to the untamed beauty of the Lofoten Islands.

    Among the many features that make Uttakleiv a photographer's dream, the famous "Dragon's Eye" is perhaps the most iconic. This natural rock pool, shaped over time by the elements, resembles an eye when viewed from above, with the surrounding rock formations adding to the mystique of the landscape. Finding the Dragon's Eye and framing it within the context of the surrounding landscape was a highlight of our visit. The reflection in the pool, coupled with the dramatic backdrop of the beach and the incoming waves, made for a compelling composition, one that captured the essence of Uttakleiv's rugged charm.

    Our morning at Uttakleiv was a reminder of the ever-changing nature of the Lofoten Islands. What had started as a concern—the heavy rain from the night before—had transformed into an opportunity, with the storm's aftermath providing conditions that enhanced the beauty and drama of the landscape. As we packed up our gear, ready to continue our exploration of the islands, we were reminded once again of the resilience and beauty of nature, and the endless photographic opportunities it presents to those willing to embrace the unexpected.    もっと詳しく

    An afternoon on the beach

    2024年2月21日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 4 °C

    The afternoon was spent in awe of the raw power of nature as we attempted to capture the crushing waves. The rhythm of the sea was mesmerizing; each wave built up with a majestic force before breaking onto the shore, creating a spectacular display of foam and spray. Our cameras, set to capture the high-speed action, froze these moments of collision, encapsulating the dynamic interplay between the sea and the land.

    As the day gradually transitioned towards evening, our focus shifted towards the horizon, where the setting sun began to paint the sky in vibrant shades of orange, pink, and purple. The sunset at Unstad Beach is a sight to behold, with the sun dipping below the towering mountains that frame the bay, casting a warm, golden light across the landscape.

    Capturing the sunset required patience and a keen eye for the changing light conditions. We found ourselves constantly adjusting our positions and camera settings, striving to do justice to the breathtaking scene unfolding before us. The reflections of the sunset on the wet sand added a layer of complexity and beauty to our compositions, creating a perfect blend of color, light, and texture.

    The beach, with its combination of dramatic waves and the serene beauty of the sunset, provided a perfect ending to our day. As the last light of the day faded and the stars began to appear, we took a moment to reflect on the experiences of the day. Unstad Beach had offered us a wealth of photographic opportunities, from the ferocity of the crashing waves to the tranquil beauty of the sunset.

    Our time spent on the beach was a testament to the diverse beauty of the Lofoten Islands and the endless possibilities    もっと詳しく

    Highs and Lows on Haukland Beach

    2024年2月22日, ノルウェー ⋅ ❄️ 2 °C

    The day began with a sense of anticipation as we arrived at Haukland Beach, greeted by the kind of light that photographers dream of. The morning sun, peeking through the clouds, cast a magical glow over the landscape, illuminating the beach and the surrounding mountains in a soft, ethereal light. This early promise spurred us on, eager to capture the unique beauty of the moment.

    As the day progressed, the beach revealed more of its charms. The reflections in the calm pools left by the receding tide, coupled with the rhythmic dance of the waves, provided endless opportunities for capturing stunning images. The combination of light, water, and landscape at Haukland Beach was mesmerizing, allowing us to collect a series of shots that felt like a true representation of the beauty of the Lofoten Islands.

    However, the day took a dramatic turn in the early afternoon. In a moment that felt like slow motion but happened all too quickly, my camera, which had been securely mounted on the tripod, slipped and fell into the sea. The shock of watching it disappear beneath the waves was profound. Despite our best efforts to retrieve it, the damage was done—the camera was completely broken, a devastating loss in the midst of an otherwise perfect shooting day.

    The incident cast a shadow over the afternoon, a stark reminder of the fragility of our equipment in the face of nature's unpredictability. Yet, the spirit of resilience that defines adventures like ours meant that the day was not lost. Relying on my spare camera, we continued our exploration, determined not to let this setback define our experience.

    As evening approached, the skies above Haukland Beach began to show signs of activity, heralding the arrival of the Northern Lights. This natural spectacle provided a chance for redemption, an opportunity to end the day on a high note despite the earlier disaster. The aurora borealis, with its swirling colors and ethereal beauty, was a sight to behold and capture, even with the spare camera. The experience of shooting the Northern Lights, a phenomenon that captures the imagination like few others, was a bittersweet end to a day filled with both incredible beauty and unexpected challenges.

    Reflecting on the day's events, the loss of my camera was a harsh lesson in the unpredictable nature of photography and the importance of being prepared for any eventuality. Yet, the images captured, both before and after the incident, served as a reminder of the beauty and fragility of the moments we strive to capture. In the end, the day on Haukland Beach was a testament to the highs and lows that come with the pursuit of photography, a journey marked by moments of triumph and trials, all woven into the fabric of our photographic adventures.    もっと詳しく

    A New Beginning in Lofoten

    2024年2月23日, ノルウェー ⋅ 🌬 4 °C

    As the sun rose on the final day of our group phototour, there was a palpable sense of anticipation in the air. This morning's sunrise shoot was not just another day at work; it was a farewell to the shared experiences, the camaraderie, and the collective pursuit of capturing the stunning beauty of the Lofoten Islands. We ventured out, determined to make the most of this last group outing, and the sunrise did not disappoint. The early light painted the landscape in hues of gold and crimson, a parting gift from the islands to us.

    After the morning's success, the tour participants exchanged goodbyes, each of us carrying a trove of memories and images that would forever bind us to this time and place. Yet, for Michael and me, the journey was far from over. With a sense of freedom and a thirst for more adventure, we rented a car, ready to embark on a three-day exploration of Lofoten's hidden gems, just the two of us.

    Our first destination was Henningsvaer, a picturesque fishing village nestled along the coast. The drive to Henningsvaer was a journey through some of the most breathtaking landscapes Lofoten has to offer. The village itself, with its historic charm and vibrant waterfront, offered a plethora of photographic opportunities. The stillness of the water, the colorful buildings, and the backdrop of stark mountains provided a fresh perspective on the beauty of the islands.

    As we made our way back to Leknes, we couldn't resist stopping at several locations along the coast. Each stop presented a new vista, a new play of light and shadow, and a new chance to capture the essence of Lofoten. These impromptu stops were a testament to the spontaneous nature of our journey, where the journey itself was as important as the destinations.    もっと詳しく

    A stormy day in Nusfjord

    2024年2月24日, ノルウェー ⋅ 🌬 4 °C

    Our adventures in Lofoten took an unexpected turn today as we faced the full force of a storm, with winds howling at 100 km/h accompanied by relentless rain. Such conditions made photography, the heart of our journey, nearly impossible. Yet, every journey has its moments of pause, and today was ours.

    Seeking refuge from the storm, we found comfort in the cozy confines of our cabin, a welcome shelter against the tempest outside. The cabin, with its warm interior and the sound of the storm as a constant backdrop, offered a different kind of beauty—a reminder of nature's power and the coziness of finding shelter.

    Throughout the day, we ventured out only when necessary, finding solace and warmth in local coffee shops and restaurants. These places, bustling with life even on a stormy day, provided a unique opportunity to observe and engage with local culture from a different perspective. Over cups of coffee and hearty meals, we watched the storm rage over the sea and the landscapes, a dramatic display of nature's fury.

    Amidst the storm, we made a brief visit to Nusfjord, one of Lofoten's best-preserved fishing villages. Even under the grey, tumultuous sky, Nusfjord retained its charm. The colorful wooden buildings, set against the backdrop of rugged mountains and the dark, churning sea, were a sight to behold. Though the weather limited our exploration and photography, the visit to Nusfjord was a poignant reminder of the enduring spirit of the places and people who thrive in this harsh, beautiful environment.

    Today, instead of capturing the landscapes through our lenses, we captured memories of a different kind—the warmth of shelter, the taste of local cuisine, and the power of a Lofoten storm. These moments, though devoid of the usual photographic pursuits, added depth to our understanding and appreciation of this remarkable region.

    As we retreated to our cabin for the night, the storm outside seemed to echo the wild, unpredictable nature of adventure itself. Today was a reminder that not all journeys are about moving forward; some are about standing still, finding beauty in the storm, and waiting for the skies to clear.    もっと詳しく

    Battling the Elements - A Final Attempt

    2024年2月25日, ノルウェー ⋅ 🌧 3 °C

    Our penultimate day in Lofoten presented us with another round of wind and rain, continuing the stormy theme from the day before. Undeterred by the weather's persistence, we ventured out with a hopeful spirit, determined to make the most of our remaining time on the islands. Our goal was simple: to capture the raw beauty of Lofoten, even amidst the tempest.

    Armed with our gear, we faced the elements head-on. The wind lashed relentlessly, and the rain seemed to find every possible way to soak us, challenging our resolve and our equipment's waterproofing. Despite these conditions, we pressed on, searching for moments of beauty in the storm's chaos.

    However, as the day progressed, it became increasingly clear that photography was nearly impossible. The combination of wind, rain, and low light made it difficult to stabilize our cameras, let alone capture the landscape as we had envisioned. Each attempt at a shot was thwarted by the weather, leaving us with little to show for our efforts but the experience of having braved the storm.

    With heavy hearts and soaked clothes, we made the decision to return to the cabin. The warmth and dryness of our shelter were a welcome relief after the day's challenges. As we hung our wet gear to dry, we reflected on the past few days—the storm had tested us, but it had also offered moments of introspection and a deeper appreciation for the power of nature.

    The remainder of the day was spent in preparation for our journey back home. Packing our bags and cleaning the cabin, we found solace in the routine, a grounding contrast to the unpredictability of the weather outside. This process, though tinged with the sadness of departure, was also a time of gratitude for the experiences shared, the landscapes witnessed, and the resilience fostered by our time in Lofoten.

    Our adventure in the Lofoten Islands was coming to an end, not with the flurry of shutter clicks we had imagined, but with the quiet contemplation of nature's might. As we settled in for our last night, the sound of the rain against the cabin served as a reminder of the journey's highs and lows, each moment a valuable part of our story. Tomorrow, we would leave Lofoten, carrying with us memories of stunning vistas, stormy days, and the unbreakable spirit of adventure.    もっと詳しく

    A Parting Gift of Sunshine

    2024年2月26日, ノルウェー ⋅ ☁️ 3 °C

    As the dawn broke on our final day in the Lofoten Islands, we were greeted with an unexpected and much-appreciated gift: almost clear skies and beautiful weather. This serendipitous turn seemed like a farewell embrace from the islands, offering us one last chance to capture their beauty under the radiance of the sun.

    Our journey to the airport was planned with ample time for a few deliberate stops, allowing us to soak in the landscapes we had come to love, perhaps for the last time. First on our itinerary was Haukland Beach, a place that had captured our hearts with its stunning vistas. The sunshine transformed the beach, illuminating the turquoise waters and the white sands, a stark contrast to the stormy greys we had grown accustomed to. This time, our cameras worked in harmony with the elements, capturing the vibrant colors and dynamic contrasts of the landscape.

    Next, we visited Uttakleiv Beach, another favorite spot of ours. The clear weather revealed the rugged beauty of the beach in full glory, with the mountains standing tall against a bright blue sky. The reflections in the tide pools, now calm and clear, mirrored the beauty of the world above, creating perfect symmetrical images that felt almost surreal.

    Between these major stops, we made several impromptu visits along the way. Each location, whether it was a sweeping vista of the sea or a quiet nook by the roadside, offered unique photographic opportunities. These final hours were a whirlwind of activity, as we sought to capture as much of Lofoten's beauty as we could, knowing that each shot was a goodbye in itself.    もっと詳しく
