Photo: Late summer fireweed, Vestvågøy, Lofoten Islands, Norway. August 1, 2026. 15:14 Already a week into August and it is starting to feel like the year that summer forgot. The last time the temperature broke 20˚c in Leknes was June 11 – though there were a couple close days in July. I’m now starting to […]
Photo: Setting sun behind Medskolmen mountain peak, Vestvågøy, Lofoten Islands, Norway. July 29, 2020. 22:36 I can see Skolmen/Medskolmen looking out the window from my office right now as it rises like a steep wall out of the sea. It is more usually recognised as the background mountains from the famous ‘Eye of Uttakleiv’ location […]
Photo: Morning sun shines bright in sky over Nappstraumen, Lofoten Islands, Norway. July 19, 2024. 03:18 I couldn’t post another grey, cloudy images this week. Not because it hasn’t been grey, cold, and cloudy almost the entire time, but mainly because I haven’t even taken my camera out of the backpack. I’m writing this post […]
Photo: Dark and cloudy July sky over Storsandes beach, Flakstadøy, Lofoten Islands, Norway. July 16, 2026. 23:18 This years feels like a summer of two Norways. Down south, Norway is baking in 30˚ C temperatures and endless sunshine, while up north we’re struggling to get into the mid teens and have only a couple hours […]
Photo: Tourist fishing boat sits alone in the empty sea, Nappstraumen, Lofoten Islands, Norway. July 10, 2026. 13:52 As Lofoten approaches its last week of the midnight sun season, the sun, unfortunately, still remains an elusive guest in this grey and cool summer Lofoten is having. Tomorrow should be nice and sunny, before clouds then […]
Photo: Midnight sun over sea, Lofoten Islands, Norway. July 11. 2025. 00:35 The Midnight Sun season is well underway here in Lofoten and the farmers are already out cutting the fields – which is a few weeks earlier than last year. Though for some reason, it feels like summer itself is off to a slow […]
Photo: View across the mountains of Værøy from Nordlandsnupen, August 18, 2023. 19:14 Despite being only 2 hours from my front door (1 hour driving, 1 hour ferry), Værøy feels like another world, far from Lofoten. It also feels like a mini-Lofoten, with all the drama and views packed into one small island. From Nordlandsnupen, […]
Photo: Midnight glow from behind the mountains of Moskenes, Lofoten Islands, Norway. June 20, 2019. 00:11 Sunday is the summer solstice which marks the longest day of the year in the northern hemisphere. Although for Lofoten, where the sun has been above the horizon for nearly a month now, it has already been a long […]
Photo: Misty clouds swirl over the landscape after a night of summer rain, Moskenesøy, Lofoten Islands, Norway. June 7, 2021. 06:53 This was one of those weather forecasts where it could be very good, or it could just be ‘ehh.’ It ended up more on the ‘ehh’ side of things. I had been hoping for […]
Photo: Willow Ptarmigan – Rype in Norwegian – enjoying the evening summer sun, Flakstadøy, Lofoten Islands, Norway. May 18, 2026. 23:05 With Lofoten’s roads filling up with motorhomes and the mountains with hikers it is good to remember that most of Lofoten’s breeding birds are ground nesting. And in the case of the common gulls […]
