Here comes the last set. I might post some more single images, but the great series is over now!

However, some panorama shots will follow in October I hope ;)

1: Lapporten again.

2: A Sami dwelling, built from wood and earth.

3: A Sami dwelling (II). I actually posted images of this dwelling several times on this forum. Spring 2007 and also earlier. Yes, I do return to nice places from time to time ;)

4: Abiskojaure.

5: Yet another tree.

6: The Kungsleden long distance hiking trail. This is like a motorway in the summer, in particular since the Abisko mountain and tourist station is nearby. When I arrived here this was a shock, people suddenly walk past you with makeup, they smell as if they just had a warm shower and all that. Strange place ;)

7: A random tree scene.

8: An evening reflection south of Kiruna. Now already on the way back.
(I go stuck in a swamp while taking this image :/ )

9: The Sarek Massif and neighbouring mountains from 60 miles distance. This is a late evening shot, taken near Jokkmokk. About 50% of all images I posted this month, were taken in that mountain range or nearby.

10: Same spot, but this time with my 300mm lens. Also the last image from Lapland!

Ah. Do I hear a promise for more? Yay. That brightens my day (which had suddenly, and upon reading words such as "final" and "last", totally dulled for a while here).
 
more good stuff dude :thumbup:... i really like the ripples in 4.
 
awesome shots......ur works always amaze me.......i enjoy looking at your post.
 
Thanks all, but you will also enjoy my posting break now :)
 
Wow! A few wall hangers there...

Very nice!

All taken in Swedish Lapland at and north of the Arctic circle. Some are pretty close to the border with Norway and even the border with Finland.

Maybe you missed them since I avoided the general gallery? Well, you see there is a list of threads in this thread. So you can see them all ;)
 
The fall colours in these shots are spectacular. And the sunset shots are stunning. As I'll probably never see this area of the world, I have really enjoyed seeing your images of it. Thanks for capturing the beauty of the area, and sharing it, in these pics.
 
Wow, I'm so pleased I found this thread - thanks for including a link to the others, makes it a LOT easier for me.

I really like the last shot, you did a great job of getting the dynamic range right - it captrues the three sets of mountains, and creates a great depth to the image.
