Hi! I'm a nature photographer at the top of Europe, at 70° 11' 57''N, in the subarctic part of Norway. I'm inspired by the raw nature around me, the spectacular Varanger peninsula, the inland and the woods of Pasvik.

As I live in the land of the northern lights, and the midnight sun, I try to share this phenomen to you, out there, dreaming of places like this. It's spectacular, when you can't get enough of the aurora, and the lovely midnight sun. Or when you just want to hide for the storms, or the extreme cold we get here, with -40C almost every winter, luckily it don't last for long, but it bites you when it comes!

At the opposit, the sun don't set between May 13nd and July 30th, in the middle of that period, you don' see the day for the night, it's equal! Hard to sleep, I tell you that.

Hope you will enjoy my content. Share if you like it, tell me if you dont.

Best of wishes

Stian Samuelsen
