2007 Explore trip to the Arctic Circle

I bought my first digital camera just before this trek, but also used my old camera with unused rolls of film to take half of the photos (some duplicates). Big mistake as some of my best shots are missing from this slideshow. Also titles were added in 2012 when some details were forgotten,
