We had a storm right after Christmas. Driven by the strong wind the waves crashed hard against the coast. Everything got very wet. Fortunately for me the temperature was below the freezing point and the water froze on rocks and plants covering everything with ice within a few meters from the sea. A strange fantasy landscape was created.

I took my oldest daughter (or maybe she took me, I really don't know which) for a photo shoot, capturing the scenery the day after the storm. The coastline looked surreal with all the ice. Walking was a challenge. But the photos turned out quite nice I think. I haven't seen her photos yet but it's hard not to get interesting pictures from a landscape such as this.

Right now it's the darkest time of the year. The sun rose slowly as we walked around with our cameras. As a matter of fact sunrise lasts for like a couple of hours and then we have two hours of sunset. The sun is moving almost horizontally and barely makes it above the treetops. The light is beautiful as long as the sun isn't covered in clouds.
