I was reading this article  https://www.photographytalk.com/lofoten-islands-norway-photographic-and-travel-guide

It speaks about traveling here during winter months.  Have any of you gone here during the summer months?  Does it compare to winter months?

It's Norway, it's going to be beautiful year round!  I think winter months offer a tad more because of the white and black contrast from snow to rocks.

I bet it's so beautiful with lush green contrasting nicely on those red fishing huts.

I have gone. It is beautiful. The clouds and mountains were amazing. I took a cruise style ship on the way out and got some great photos. On the way back I took a small plane, none of my photos from the plane turned out great but honestly, it was one of the most spectacular views of my life. Absolutely breathtaking.

My husband wants to go there this summer, that and Ireland.  You mind me asking how much it was to charter small plane?

The downside is that during the summer months, there are a lot more tourist there.  But you can't deny the beauty of these lands.  Plan ahead and if you want to get the money shots, learn to wake up early!
