Video Of The Day: Night Skies Over Norway
I stumbled across this beautiful time-lapse video on Vimeo entitled, "Night Skies Over Norway." The work features the night skies and general nighttime happenings over Southern Norway. I found this video to be immediately captivating. The moving images of the dark sky and the subtle hints of life that make appearances throughout the night in this video are completed by simple and tasteful music by the filmmaker, Svenn Dvergastein. These shots were taken during January 2012. If you visit, keep this fun fact in mind: you're allowed to camp anywhere you want in Norway, public or private property, so long as you're not in view of a home. Challenge yourself to a camping/backpacking trip in Norway and see this gorgeous night sky for yourself.

My family and I lived in southwestern Norway for two years. The first winter was the year that Hale Bopp was visible and each night we would stand on our balcony and look at knowing that we were actually looking back in time. We lived on a fjord and the moonglow on a clear night when the moon was full was staggering! It is a beautiful land!

Not the best.. more like "A few things that happened outdoors in Norway, most of it at night and not with a particularly compelling view of the sky".
