Never been a more important time to reflect on our good fortune. The lovely people who make our community what it is. The cultures and nature that have brought beauty to our own lives.
All the better when armed with a camera. The photos themselves perhaps matter less than the task of enjoying our time to take them.
Imagine living in a place like this for most of your life and just thinking it's normal to be surrounded by such a beautiful landscape?
The little white dots in the water are Kittiwakes, who are just starting to terrorise the locals by nesting on cliffs and chatting loudly aaaaaaaaaall through the night.

Pretty good day today. Won't see these lovely mountains again until the the year end. That makes me sad, but I must remember how lucky I am to have spent some quality time here
Have enjoyed escaping from reality for just a little bit, and connecting with a different kind of reality.

Helping a friend with a shoot this week, having scored a little blue sky. Headed into this fjord to do some fishing, and got some nice scenery as well.
We've had about 40cm of snow in the few days since this shot. Would love to pop back and see what this scene looks like today.
Sun. Ice. Halo. Birch. This went for hours today. I now have 16 bazillion photos that all look like this.
Was about to go to bed but then not.
The joy of the unexpected.
Yesterday was by any measure a totally shit day for me. Except for one brief break in the clouds. Metaphorical and literal.
I stepped outside at twilight to watch another aurora, and over the next hour the cloud cover thinned. And it was a marvellous show. I decided to grab a camera and start a timelapse in case more nordlys arrived... and I got lucky
One of the best auroras I've ever seen.

Here's a treat for being good this week, a timelapse of the forest last night in Arctic Norway.
There's a very very big mountain to the south of this creek that holds back the clouds. We constantly get long patches of clear sky even when the entire region is clouded over. And sometimes the aurora activity kicks up at the same time. That's a win.

Soon the ice will disappear. I wish it could stay a few weeks longer.
