Photographer’s Note
Lofoten is an archipelago and a traditional district in the county of Nordland, Norway. Though lying within the Arctic Circle, the archipelago experiences one of the world's largest elevated temperature anomalies relative to its high latitude. Anytime I was there in June, July or August I experienced the tempereatures of around 20-25 degrees.
The shot was taken from the ferry going from Bodo, after 4 hours of water and small islands we saw the LAND....
If you have ever thought of exploring Norway, don't miss LOFOTEN, I highly recommend it :-))

Hello Gosia,
I like the backlight effect, creating this shimmering water surface!
And I notice at least a couple of boats here that are not quite up to date hehehe...
A lovely composition showing the beauty of Lofoten in summer!

Hi Gosia, Good morning:)
Picturesque view with spectacular composition and attractive details, the depth of the photo is splendid, the distant mountains are beautiful, not an easy shot beacause of the light. Cheer. Have a nice weekend!

Hello Gosia,
A very attractive backlit composition with lovely cool tones. I like the way the light catches the tops of the ripples in the water.

Hi Gosia,
I went to Norway in 2002 but I not visited Lofoten.
I like this blue tone and the bright sea. It's summer!
Have a nice weekend
