The most difficult bit of this particular shot of a sumptuous pink sunrise over the reflective waters of Bergsbotn was actually making my way to the water's edge which required a 50m traverse on a boulder field concealed by half a metre of crusty snow. Once there I needed to combine two graduated filters to step down the brightness of sky to sea and sea to rock with a combination of hard and soft neutral density graduated filters. The result has an ethereal beauty which matches the vision I beheld at the start of another winter day in Senja.
