What’s your editing process and camera setup for a shot like this? I’m relatively new to the hobby and trying to get to this kinda level

Very cool and beautiful. Is it one photo, or a composite?

Wow, coming to Lofoten around March 28th. Hopefully will see something similar. I am really thinking about buying a wider lens for the trip or using 24mm (FF).

I would definitely recommend a wider lens for up there, it's a very expansive place. You can also rent a lens if you're not ready to commit to something forever.

I hope you get to see the lights, also! March 28th is pretty late in the year, as of March 31st there is officially no more nighttime in Lofoten until September 14th.

We are going on a 14 day roadtrip (from Czechia) so renting is out of the question because buying a lens would cost almost the same (and I could resell it after I return). I am already taking a 35L bag full of photo/video stuff so space might be a concern too 😅.

Don't know why, but I didn't check when the "no night" period starts....hopefully it will still be somewhat dark (we are also staying in Abisko and then driving down through Sweden). We have to be in Narvik on 30.3. (One of us is flying back to Oslo) so maybe we will be around Narvik from 26-30th.

Risky to travel all the way there for a shot like this without checking if it's still gonna be possible! But if you can adapt and find other things to do as an alternative in the worst case then you can still spend a good time. Norway has beautiful sites, nature etc. Have fun!

Yeah, we are not traveling all the way upthere just to take a pic :D We have some friends in Oslo, so we will be staying there for a couple of days and than move on. It's more of a "turn off trip" because some of us are going through a somewhat difficult moments :D

Only time I was fortunate to leave the states to travel was to go to visit Norway and Svolvaer was one of the places I got to see. I wish I had left with a picture like this as that area was something else. This picture is fantastic and it makes me happy

What the fuck are you rambling about? It's not in everyone's backyard. That's why he said near Svolvaer, Norway, -- go look it up on the map.

Also, he doesn't need to steal anything. He's a professional photographer who does this for a living. You would understand that if you put down your hatred goggles and looked at some of his other postings here. Man you're completely ridiculous.

Do you even know what that word means? No one is stalking you. Go get a grip on yourself. Either way, your line of questioning and accusing the OP of stealing is what a delusional idiot would say. Go troll elsewhere.

This looks amazing OP. I'm not really sure what your standard practice is, but is there any way to get a higher res version?

Do you have a print shop page or something?
