✧ Mesmerizing Moment ✧

The reason why I walked 15 km in the wild last night, all by myself during the midnight sun, on a place I'd never been before ツ

 

This impressive Alta Canyon were my goal, but there were so many amazing moments along the way too. Nice crooked birch trees to take self portraits by, large groups of cottongrass, blueberries and mountain flowers, nice reflections and rivers - all in the amazing light of the midnight sun. I also came across a bird of prey coming to its nest in a tree close to me, and its offspring flying around it.

 

I wondered how it would be to walk among all the large mosquitoes that are known in this northern part of Norway - but they obviously disliked my blood just as much as the small ones we have in the southern part of the country ツ There were many flying around and sitting on me when I stopped to take photos, but I didn't get a single bite (!)

 

Now we are back by the coast, and will go to Norway's fourth largest and really beautiful island tomorrow to photograph and enjoy fjords, mountains, beaches and the midnight sun.
