A view to Lofoten

English text below.
I dag er en treg dag. Det har regnet masse, og vinden har økt på til kuling. Fotografen er visst mindre værbestandig enn kameraet. I går var været flott, og det ble mange gode bilder. Dette var et av de siste før jeg tørnet inn rundt midnatt. Det er tatt fra Bøsletta i Steigen, over Vestfjorden mot Trolltindan, der midnattsola trengte sporadisk gjennom regnskyer som hadde stuet seg opp rundt Lofotveggen.

Pentax K-5, Sigma EX 500mm f/4.5, Tripod
1/90s, f/8, ISO 800.

Today is a slow day. There's been a lot of rain, and the wind has built up to gale force. This photographer is less weatherproof than his cameras. Yesterday saw wonderful weather and lots of images. This is one I took shortly before turning in, around midnight. It is shot from Bøsletta in Steigen, across Vestfjorden towards the mountains of Trolltindan. The midnight sun occasionally broke through the heavy clouds that had piled up against this barrier of mountains.

This is wonderful, and a "shoo-in" for next year's pdml annual.

It reminds me of Mordor ( JRR Tolkiens's Lord of the Rings" )
