A picture taken to the west from a walking track on the hill in the centre on Tromsø island.
Tromsø in high summer is beautiful and warm. The sun is mature and the colours deep. It is easy to forget that all this turns into a winter wonderland.

Tromsø has just hit the point where the sun doesn’t come over the horizon anymore. I’m amazed at how quickly it happened. Have to wait til mid-January now before we can see the sun again – yikes!
It is stunning, absolutely beautiful. However as I have said before my heart melts in the winter

Christmas is fantastic – every childs dream. But it sure makes it hard to take outside pictures when you only have twilight ..lol
Lovely photo.
How much snow do you have there now? My daughter’s in Oslo and is complaining that it’s getting cold but no doubt it’s much worse up north, especially without the sun.
Btw, I’ve tagged you on my blog.
