Last week of October is here. The lakes of Northern Norway are not yet frozen. I scouted that spot the day before, to find these great reflections and organise my light orientation for the aurora night shoot. After hiking up, I waited up on the top for 3 hours, standing, cameras on tripods, composition ready to shoot, battery in the pocket to save power. After a long game of waiting, I decided to pack my bags, mentally ready to head back down, when suddenly.. The magic of Northern lights happened right in front of me. The hopes I had built during the whole evening finally came alive.

• Biography
  Originally from France, Virgil was born on September 26th 1988 He grew up in a small town between Lyon and Switzerland, and left France in may 2011 to explore the world, and discover his passions for the great outdoors and photography. The photos you find in his gallery are the result of thousands of hours spent outside under snowstorm, strong winds, heavy heat, freezing cold temperatures, long drives, great hikes, early mornings, late evenings, and tremendous amount of time spent waiting and facing nature without knowing what will come. That's what keeps him in love with Landscape and Night.
