Kråkenes Lighthouse (Norwegian: Kråkenes fyr) is a coastal lighthouse in Vågsøy Municipality in Sogn og Fjordane, Norway. It is located on a rocky, knife-like promontory jutting out of the northwestern tip of the island of Vågsøy.

It is one of the most stormbeaten buildings in Norway. Even though it sits 42,5 metres above the sea, waves crash over it during the worst storms.

When i visited everything was calm…

This is why i spend countless hours freezing my ass off. This is the essence of what i do…

I shot this on new-years-day…my wife was working the late shift and i was so restless i could explode… I knew there was some really good action going on in the sky and the moment she came through the door..i was out! I went to a small river i know quite well and positioned myself in (!) a small pool right under a waterfall. I was trying different angles when a stunning corona appeared right above the waterfall. I tilted and shot…BOOM!

New on 500px : Moody Midnight by Arild_Heitmann by Arild_Heitmann

I shot this roughly a year ago. The skies were incredibly dramatic and none of my shots from this night made the slightest justice to them. The midnightsun contributed to the atmosphere…

The fjord was dead calm, thats quite rare.

All in all i had dumped this one, but what the hell…i`ll throw it out here..

New on 500px : Framed by Arild_Heitmann by Arild_Heitmann

This is one i captured about a month ago. I was basically just standing in the river waiting for the light to get its shit together and shine for me, but no…it wouldnt cooperate. But suddenly i saw some clouds come drifting over my head and i waited until it entered my frame.

I wanted the clouds to appear as a natural frame around the mountain. Turned out pretty ok i think. Although the best shots came an hour later when things really took off…

If you want to experience the Arctic and shoot all the awesomeness we have to offer; Lofoten, Senja, Lyngen etc….

New on 500px : In the Flow by Arild_Heitmann by Arild_Heitmann

Should be viewed on black..really I kept returning to this spot for a few days in a row. The conditions in the river itself was absolutely perfect; nice waterflow, icicles hanging from the snowy edges. It was just perfect, but…. The light wasnt how i wanted it to be. I needed the sun to set just a little bit to the right of the mountain, so i had to wait for a few days until it finally aligned the way i had visualized it. And on top of that i had perfect skies and just all over great light. Im standing mid-river here. My lens is really close to the water and the icicles and there was spray constantly being throwed onto the 145mm polarizer. It is just one gigantic piece of spraycatcher… So i spent half my time wiping the lens clean and trying to get a decent and unsprayed exposure. Not to mention that the water was bloody cold! Some of you probably know that i run a few workshops together with my good friend and lord of awesome Stian klo. The tours are fillling up now so if you want to join us and have some fun in locations that pretty much will blow your mind..you need to hurry.
