Description Around these December days up here, it's fairly difficult to catch the "right" light if you want to shoot some photos outside. Myself, I like to sleep for an extended period of time in my holidays, and that's the problem. The sun never shows during these months and days, and the light is at a maximum for only 2-3 hours a day. This pano is shot around noon, and you can see how the light was already escaping behind the mountains to the right. Walked in snow up to my knees for a while before I found a spot, the colors were absolutely worth it, and it was totally quiet up there!

Sorry if the colors are a bit too bright or dark, I'm borrowing a laptop

A dedication to - whom I would like to share this view with!

It really does feel magic, every time I'm alone up there or at any other of "my" special places I'm really curious now because your userpage doesn't say, where do you live?

Anyways thanks so much for the nice comment, I'm glad you like it

Even though I was born and raised in a busy and quite populated city of Athens in Greece and near Birmingham when I used to live in Britain,
I've always loved such 'far away' places when all you can hear is the wind's breeze

Utrolig vakkert, skulle ΓΈnsket jeg var der sjΓΈl. Bra tidspunkt du kom deg der pΓ₯, og. Deilige nyanser av rosa/lilla/rΓΈdt.

Thanks so much Swantje! I don't know if you recognize the mountains from one of my other panoramas, but it's the same island. The light was incredible, a bit freezing with snow to my knees but it's nothing when you have a view like this

And happy new year to you too my dear friend, by the way I was moonstruck and totally happy when I got your card! Thanks again hehe!

"Myself, I like to sleep for an extended period of time in my holidays, and that's the problem." --> Oh, yes, I know! xD

Hey my little snowman, after look at all your northerland panorama shots sited in your legs, after all georugeous words and descriptions you told me about your birthplace, I canΒ΄t wait to be there, even during this summer and long time, explore and catch with our cameras these marvellous places!

Technically, the tonal color, composition and disposition of elements is a real good work from you, that never will stop to amaze me!

We will share this together soon

Thanks so much little, it feels so very very nice when you like my photos, I want to be maybe as good as you someday!

Keep that dream/thought, and be sure to visit the north when you go! My absolute recommendation would be Lofoten.

All my emotions can be expressed with blasphemous words only...so I can't recite them.
What a landscape! Do they really exists? I can smell the cold air...such a fantastic view

They certainly exist yes, and the emotion is rather impossible to expressed as you say... Walking with snow to your knees, smelling that frosty chilling air, listening to the complete silence and just breathing the nothingness. It's magic!
