Southern Sunset: Row Boat

This cute wooden row boat has become a feature of the landscape. It is always sitting in the same place. I know it gets used in the fjord but I have never seen it floating on the water, only sitting on the beach. Soon the ice will come and freeze itself onto the boat. It will still look cute but it will not be in use until next Summer.

Lathari beach is the only beach in Alta.
This custom is based on a spiritual commitment.
Runes were the written language of the Vikings.
In the winter we rest.
Even in the peak of summer our mountains have touches of snow.
The sun never goes down during this season but the mountains to the East are so high that the sun still has to raise above them in the morning hours and an artificial dawn-effect wakes the city.
Beautiful photos! I was walking around the same area today, at your favourite jetty… I was half expecting to meet you there
I wanted to say: it’s beautiful there this time of year.. but I think it’s beautiful any time of year there!

I imagine us wondering round the island in circles with our cameras always just missing each other. One day we will probably bump into each other, this island isn’t that big
I simply love your photos L-Jay!!!
You take beautiful pictures. Helped no doubt by the stunning light.
