Over the hills

run to the hills, says the famous Iron Maiden song. Indeed, when Lady Aurora goes out dancing, we run to the hills, find a vantage point and shoot! 

This photo was taken in a small frozen valley in the Varanger peninsula, northern Norway. I spend most of my summers in that region, with an amazing landscape and brilliant nature: but I was lucky enough to go up there this year, riding a snowscooter (how cool!) and with great company.

During our stay in a tiny cabin, we enjoyed all sorts of weather: first, just cold; one day later, full arctic blizzard; and finally, beautiful clear skies, and fantastic darkness without light pollution. 

Despite the cold and the wind, being out there and seeing her dance is always rewarding. 

Have you had such experiences? Have you felt cold (or warm), tired, but yet fantastic for having done something? Let me know!

    Name: Northern Lights 1/8 Grade: A++ Northern Lights stands among the most famous strains of all time, a pure indica! Itself a descendant of indigenous Afghani landrace strains, Northern Lights has given rise to famous hybrids like Sour Diesel, Shiva Skunk, and Super Silver Haze. Rumor has it that Northern Lights first sprouted near Seattle, Washington, but was propagated out of Holland after 1985 at what is now Sensi Seeds. Pungently sweet, spicy aromas radiate from the crystal-coated buds, which sometimes reveal themselves in hues of purple. Northern Lights’ psychoactive effects settle in firmly throughout the body, relaxing muscles and pacifying the mind in dreamy euphoria. Comfortable laziness allows patients to relieve pain and sleeplessness, while its mellow contentment roots out depression and stress. Flavors: Earthly, Sweet, Pine
