A few years ago I had unique chance to travel to Svalbard, beautiful, cold island in the North. Svalbard is above the polar circle, so I had the all-round day, the whole day. I plan to put some more pictures, for now only two. Other wait for scanning.
I experienced couple of hyperactive days, nearly no sleep at all, simply there was no night. And, too much fun as well. The pictures I made from an exploration ship. You canot imagine what garment I had on myself. I looked like a polar bear at least, only orange :)
Also, look at Master Picture, from one of DT best:
More to come.

It was not too cold, up to -10
I had my trusty Olympus OM-4Ti so battery was not a problem :)
In Alps, it was -20 to -25, on my Sony A700, I burned 3 lithium batteries in 5-6 hours and 300 shots. Not so bad, overall |

I was in Norway last October for vacation but I have not reached the swalbard because I was not so equipped, but I would have liked so much, then wait your photos. |

>I am geek. At 10, I learned to shoot, probably to balance my geekness.
I love manual, wooden cameras.
I try to catch the mood, the light and the feeling of the place. I hope to make THE photo one day :)
