    This was filmed between 29th April and 10th May 2011 in the Arctic, on
    the archipelago Lofoten in Norway.
    My favorite natural phenomenon is one I do not even know the name of, even after talking to meteorologists and astrophysicists I am none the wiser.What I am talking about I have decided to call The Arctic Light and it is a natural phenomenon occurring 2-4 weeks before you can see the Midnight Sun.
    The Sunset and Sunrise are connected in one magnificent show of color and light lasting from 8 to 12 hours. The sun is barely going below the horizon before coming up again. This is the most colorful light that I know, and the main reason I have been going up there for the last 4 years, at the exact
    same time of year, to photograph. Based on previous experience, I knew this was going to be a very
    difficult trip. Having lost a couple of cameras and some other equipment up there before, it was crucial to bring an extra set of everything. I also
    made sure I had plenty of time in case something went wrong.
    If you can imagine roping down mountain cliffs, or jumping around on slippery rocks covered in seaweed with 2 tripods, a rail, a controller,
    camera, lenses, filters and rigging for 4-5 hour long sequences at a time, and then
    having to calculate the rise and fall of the tides in order to capture the essence - it all prved bit of a challenge.
    And almost as if planned, the trip would turn out to become very
    difficult indeed. I had numerous setbacks including: airline lost my
    luggage, struggling to swim ashore after falling into the Arctic sea: twice, breaking lenses, filters, tripod, computer, losing the whole dolly rig and controller into the sea, and even falling off a rather tall rock and ending
    up in the hospital. As much as I wanted to give up, the best way Out is
    always "Through". I am glad I stuck it through though because there were some amazing sunrises waiting. At 1:06 you see a single scene from day to night to day.
    I asked the very talented Marika Takeuchi to specifically compose and
    perform a song for this movie, and what she came up with is absolutely remarkable. Thank you very much Marika!

    Pay no attention, give no energy, entertain no thoughts to all those who disliked this; it is wasted energy. Instead, resonate in the beauty of this work.

    I got to know Marika Takeuchi through this composition. Oddly, I never read the description, therefore I thought it was a series of pictures. Only now, after five years, I realise this is the result of hard work in the Artic. You are a great photographer. Thank you so much, truly.

    there's some places like this in this world that we all ignore. when i leave my home all the days and when i think about how is my city, i can't stop me from thinking about this fabulous landscapes so far away from me, and at this moment, i realize how the world is huge, and how i'm so small among this nation. I need to escape, I need to breathe, I want to see at least once in my life this kind of area. peace

    I came back once again to view this extraordinary video you created. The last time I was here, I failed to read what you had written, describing the events of your trip. I'm so glad you stuck it out, as I'm sure many others are. The film is simply stunning. As I sat here and really took in what it was that I was seeing, I realized that for me, it helps put things into perspective. Thank you for your efforts and please know they are appreciated and please extend the same to Marika Takeuchi.

    You know, at first I thought I had heard this somewhere, in a movie, on television maybe. But for the life of me, I couldn't remember where I heard it. Suddenly, it dawned upon me, I hadn't heard this through any media outlet ever before, I had heard it in my heart.

    Speechless; and after reading your experience in the description is even more amazing, it's like analysing how was the art made. I love Marika's music, and to know that this images were the inspiration for that song made me feel part of this dynamic and full of life universe. Thanks!

    Thank you for your effort and endurance in going through the ordeals in capturing this beautiful video. I hope you get well soon. And thank you Marika Takeuchi for composing and performing the music, it's beautiful. The video's breathtaking. Watching your nature videos sometimes remind me of how wasted my life is- while I'm cooped up with the same routine everyday and I just realised there's so many beautiful things out there. Maybe I should take a break and appreciate Mother nature.

  • @derekdentSE
    @derekdentSE 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Guys. Many people have been asking for the song's name in this video. If you read the comments by TESOPHOTOGRAPHY in his video, it clearly states that the song was composed specifically for the song, meaning it is very unlikely that there are any tutorials or sheet music out there. However, if you want to know, the song's name is "The Arctic Light" by Marika Takeuchi.

    Oh, and thank you, Terje for all the trouble and effort, sacrifice and hard work you've put in to making this. They really are the time-lapse's with soul, it is if we can see all the passion you have for the beauty that lies in nature itself. Thank you for capturing it, and sharing it with the world. I can honestly say that this one, and "The Mountain" are by far the very best and beautiful scenes I've ever seen in my life. I envy you and am grateful at same time. Stay awesome, and safe.

The music is gorgeous and blends so well with the scenery that I take my hat off before the author of this video. It is a true masterpiece of art! Thanks so much for sharing with the world.

    @lurker62 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Time lapse; set a camera up to take a still photo every minute, or 5 minutes, or every hour, for several hours, and then stitch all the frames into a movie afterwards. You need c. 24 photos for a second of film! Enormously difficult, time-consuming and prone to catastrophic failures (imagine running it all night & coming back in the morning to find it had rained all the time) -- so the level of dedication an expertise to produce this becomes even more astounding

  • @bylm85
