Haukland in Winter II – Lofoten Islands

Photo: Haukland beach, Lofoten Islands, Norway.  Feb 2012

I’ve been busy the last week getting a few images processed.  I should have a gallery of the first 50 online and ready to go tomorrow.

I made several journeys out to Haukland Beach during my time on the islands.  I was hoping for conditions similar to the award winning image I photographed in 2010 but I never managed to get the timing right for the tides and temperatures were too warm for much ice to have formed.  While it’s not as dramatic as I might have hoped, I still like the simplicity in the above image.  I should have arrived a bit earlier though for a bit more color in the sky.  Next time…
