Taking pictures while standing out in the ocean is very nice.
The island in the background is called Grytøya.

Atlantic Puffins (Fratercula arctica) sure are beautiful. They are not very common in my parts, but on my last two fishing trips I have seen many puffins. Very surprising and I hope this means that the number of birds are increasing after years of decreasing populations.

Check out my other bird pictures here.

The days are getting longer and longer. This picture were taken at 10 PM in evening!
The nights are also getting very light and as I’m writing this, at 2 AM, the horizon is still orange.
We are just talking about a couple of weeks before the midnight sun is showing up here. I will be capturing it so you might want to visit this site later 🙂

Seeing this in real life was very breathtaking and I have to admit that the picture does not give credit to the sight.

This is a very popular beach in the summer with people coming from all the small villages on Andørja. You can see the sandy part below the white house.

I made this shot because of the dramatic clouds and light streaming through from the sun.
As you can see I’m standing in a river. The combined sound of a river and waves hitting the shore is very nice!

This is the island I come from viewed from the neighbour island Rolla. In the horizon on the left you can see Senja.
The snow is retreating fast 🙂
