The description of Lofoten as a fairy tale land comes from the Norway's great poet Bjornstjerne Bjornson.
When you like nature as me, Lofoten is an amazing place to be, especially Reine. Reine has been chosen by Time magazine as one of the most beautiful fjords in the world, a sight for sore eyes. The views are just breathtaking, snow covered mountains, deep fjords, and beautiful colors.
The weather in Lofoten changes rapidly in winter. First half of my trip it was none-stop raining almost every day, I spent most of my time scouting or sitting in my cozy water front Rorbu cabin and enjoying the view from the window.
Landscape photography is a waiting game, this is the one after ten days of waiting ...…
Does it look like a scene from Frozen?

Risin and Kellingin (Risin og Kellingin) are two sea stacks on the northern coast of Eysturoy in the Faroe Islands close to Eiði. The name also means The Giant and the Witch and they stand at a height of 71 and 68m tall respectively. Compare them to the enormous vertical cliffs beside them to get a feel for how majestic the Faroe Islands are.
Legend tells us that giants in Iceland wanted the Faroes, as they struggled to pull the island Eiðiskollur mountain split. They continued to struggle throughout the night unaware of the passing of time. As sunrise came a shaft of sunlight caught the giants and turned them to stone.
