Lofoten Fishermans Cottages Hamnoy Red Sunrise Glow Sky Paul Reiffer Photographer Workshop Photography Luxury Bespoke Private Norway

Norway’s Lofoten Islands – Stunning? Yes. “Untamed”? I’m not so sure.

It’s one of landscape photography’s “big ticks” – that shot of the fishermans cottages in the shadow of Lofoten’s mountain range in Hamnøy; one of the archipelago’s tiny islands connected by bridges that span for miles across the region.
