Sarek is one of the most wild places in Europe. Together with a fellow photographer I was hiking and photographing in the area for 11 days. It was a wonderful time and I hope some of you will enjoy this short movie.

That water must have been cold!

Thanks for your comments. The water was really cold but that day it was actually very hot (well for being northern sweden) so it was nice.

Well done...well done!! I liked that you went back and forth between the landscape vista to showing your personal interaction...hiking, bathing, lighting the stove, packing up camp...and facial expressions. As I see both, I am able to enjoy more the human texture that enhances this video. A bunch of landscape vistas alone would be beautiful...but a bit blah, imho. So hats off to you. Even better ...a bit of talking...your thoughts and reactions to the events shown...and text translation to english...would really be cool too. Ken S

This is great, I love videos like this - I really do! It is amazing to me how similar our landscapes appear, Sweden and Alaska - rough jagged rocks, vast landscapes, glacial carved valleys. Thanks for sharing this, now I need to get out for a hike :toast:

Thanks a bunch guys,

I'm really glad you enjoyed it. And this video thing is just opening up for a lot of creative opportunities I think. Hopefully we'll see some interesting stuff here on NPN.
