I woke up today to snow covering the mountain peaks. It is a sign that autumn will soon be coming here in northern Norway, but it makes a pretty picture don’t you think?

The mountain peaks are 1000 meters above the sea.

This sunset was incredible red and I just had to take a photo of the moment the sun disappeared in the ocean. It is at times like this I enjoy living in northern Norway.

A bit earlier that day I photographed this picture. Turned out to be my most popular photo on this blog so far 🙂

It was raining all day, but I really felt like photographing so I went for a trip on one of our sandy beaches. Here you can see some typical Norwegian autumn weather with wind and rain.
Hope there will be some more warm days before the winter hits us.

These red sunsets are so beautiful and I had to, once again, photograph the pretty scene. This picture was taken at 9:30 PM in the evening so the days are getting shorter and shorter here in northern Norway.

Take a look at this photo that I took back in May. That was the most amazing red sunset I have ever seen!

I found this old fishing boat when I was out photo walking on the beach. The sunsets are coming earlier now and this picture was taken at 9 PM. If you look closer at the old boat you can the red sunset light reflect on the white painting.

I used the word magnificent in the title to describe the mountain because that was the word that popped up in my head a couple of days ago when I was looking at the mountains. I see these mountains every day so it’s easy to forgot how magnificent they really are. Wish you all could see them in real life since a simple photo doesn’t do them justice.
Take a closer look at the upper right mountain. Can you see the snow spots?
That mountain is called “The Snow Peak”. Very describing name considering that there is still snow on the mountain this late in the summer.
