This photo is from my six week solo ski tour in the same area I was in September, just further south near Reisa National Park. The building is a reindeer herder’s cottage, and there were several others like it nearby.

Loads of snow the last few days. Popped into town for a little shopping. Maybe overdid it a little :)

Good emotional (angry) #punk from #Norway. Do very much recommend if that is something that sounds interesting to you.
Could not find any bandcamp page unfortunately.

Adding this to my thread of Norway moments this week, because I just love the atmospheric dance of light in this corner of the fjord. It feels like the entire solar system has jumped in to make a composition for me. So dynamic. So ephemeral. So lucky to be standing here.
This was taken two nights ago, before the rain set in :)

And here's the bigger scene to show you where we are. This taken at 28mm, revealing the closer shoreline (and a hint of the salmon factory), and Grovfjord in the distance. That dance of light low on the horizon was a treat today.
I always expect these colours to disappear within a few minutes, but we're in the Arctic and these hues seem to hold for hours. This scene is around 11am, and was still holding at 1pm, although the low clouds had washed over the fjord at Grov and hidden some of the peaks.

Special stratospheric clouds today. It's nearly midday on Dec 25 and there's no sun here for another few weeks, but we do get these funky clouds that are very high up in the atmosphere which catch the sun from over the horizon.
They often turn a rainbow of pearlescent colours, but mostly today they've been leaning into the Trans colours... because Trans rights are human rights :)

Today is a good day for me to remember all the folks who have shined a light into my life. You all make this world a little bit better.

Adding this little video to my thread. It's not a great video, captured as an after thought. But does show two things...
https://vimeo.com/1149188863/513d029b1e
Firstly, the speed of an active aurora in real time. You see ripples moving across the sky in this footage, and the colour shifts. Some auroras barely move at all, others on this night were racing much faster still. They vary a lot. But hopefully this footage conveys the dynamic nature of auroras.
The other thing this footage demonstrates is the different between still photos and video. A 4sec exposure for the stills, versus 1/25th of second for video. This was shot on a Lumix S9 with an F2.8 lens and ISO 128000. A faster lens would help, not to mention waiting for a moonlit aurora event :)

Got a wonderful opportunity to shoot with the 11mm Fisheye last night. Still not sure this is the lens for me, but definitely can see the value of such a wide perspective on such a big night of auroras.
Here's a little sequence from a timelapse series below. If you want to watch the video, there's a copy of that now posted on my tubes:

This lens by the way is an 11mm Fisheye F2.8 by TT Artisan. It's noticeably darker than their 14mm F2.8, and even though it's very very small it's noticeably heavier too. These are very affordable lenses and offer a decent ratio of fun:spend :)
