Norway Segla
This is one of the most hiked locations on Senja island in Northern Norway. It's a beautiful peninsula with 2 fjords on both sides. During the summer months, this spot might get very crowded but Autumn and spring are the best times if you want to avoid having people in your photos. This photo is taken from 2/3 way to the top.
Photography Tips
Go very wide ;)
Take foreground and framing into consideration. This place has been photographed many many times. However, all choosing (for a good reason) the same position which does not offer framing. Play around and have fun.
