Tromsø on 70° North

This is where I live (N 69°40'30" E 18°55'05"). My city has got the northernmost brewery and university in the world. We are 68 000 strong living with two months in midnight sun and two months in twilight. That means: From 25 November till 16 January the sun is under the horizon. Ninety minutes by airplane to Spitsbergen and the same to Oslo. Three hours to London - direct flights by Norwegian Air Shuttle.

Great gallery. Thanks for the guiding tour in your town!

Flotte bilder, utrolig bra komposisjon av bildene. Bor selv i Tromsø, men er litt mer klønete spesielt på komposisjon.

Well done, your images impress me!

What a fine looking city; I just love the northern light, there's something very special about it, it has a glow and purity that southern latitudes lack.

Indeed, you are a lucky person for living in a such beautiful place. Loved your style and amazing collection, Arnulf.
Marisa Livet01-Nov-2006 08:31
I come back here every now and then, Arnulf, and I'm always captured by the atmosphere of this gallery, which reflect your world.
I'm fascinated by Scandinavian countries and by the North in general. I know now you are in a kind of continuous twilight and it can generate a state of melancholy, nevertheless I’d like being there, maybe for a few days…
These photos are appealing; they raise in me a sense of peace, bracing air, perception of a different face of nature, which is stern and sweet at once.

Too bad Tromso was not on the tour I did a few years ago, I have really missed something. Maybe next time...
Eldar Kadymov19-Feb-2006 22:54
I loved here everyhting, colours, abglesm sense of perspective, just name it ! The only thing that upsets me a lot is Norwegian sculptures, my brain is cracking when I am trying to understand the meaning of those, hahahahahaha
