    2025 Super Solar Borealis Lofoten Islands Photography Tour II

    What a stunning place! Though we were lucky to get 2 good nights of northern lights, Lofoten provides postcard worthy shots at every corner. Our cabins were fabulous and no surprise but Tanya went above and beyond in cooking several breakfasts and dinners. We had two great guides in Thomas Vikre and Kim Jenssen and along with Dan there was plenty of help to get wonderful photos. I really enjoyed practicing my long exposure photography (it helped smooth out the water on windy days!)

      2025 Super Solar Borealis Lofoten Islands Photography Tour IV

      Looking at a map, the Lofoten Islands should be a frozen wonderland in February since they are located north of the Arctic Circle. However, the climate is very temperate for their northern latitude due to the Gulf Stream hitting the Western Coast of Norway. This makes the weather very changeable, which we experienced. When the clouds eventually cleared, the Aurora Borealis appeared and the cooler temperatures enabled a fresh blanket of snow to make the scenery look like a winter wonderland. It was nice to spend all our nights in one place. Getting there required some effort due to the four flights we had to take. This trip was a special experience that called for a little patience with the weather.
