After Work Ski Touring, Kvaloya Island, Troms, Norway
Photograph by Kjetil Magne Samuelsen
In the northern part of Norway we’re blessed with changing light conditions throughout the year. Now the days here in Tromso are getting really long and it’s finally possible to get out on a “real” ski tour after working hours. This picture was taken on a Thursday evening at 8.30PM (April 11th). The sun was setting behind the horizon of the Atlantic and my good friend Lars Linaker Berglund was taking advantage of the good snow!
That lighting is amazing! The horizon and water glow but the snow wears a softer shade. Fresh powder sent airborne by the skis glistens.
THAT is what skiing is all about!
That is an awesome pic!

Thank you very much for the kind responses, Maria and Niall! Very nice to get positive feedback. It’s good motivation for a hobby photographer 🙂
Great pic! Would love to be able to tour after work, that is the kind of gym I want!
