The Lofoten Islands are quickly becoming one of the most popular photo locations in the world. Photographers from all over are descending on this part of northern Norway to photograph the landscapes and all the beauty that's here. In fact, there are so many photography locations in the Lofoten Islands that I could probably do about 10 posts about it.
So, I've tried to condense this photo video down to the 7 best photo locations in the The Lofoten Islands.
If you're a landscape or travel photographer this is one of the places in Norway that you're definitely going to want to visit.
I'll be back in the Lofoten Islands in June, so look for another video from here in Norway at that time with more photo spots.

10 Best Places to Visit in Egypt - Travel Video
With a fascinating history that reaches back to the dawn of civilization, Egypt is considered the oldest travel destination on earth. The African nation’s awe-inspiring temples and pyramids have captured the imagination of travelers for thousands of years. Although most people come to Egypt to view its ancient monuments, natural attractions beckon travelers too. The Red Sea coast is known for its coral reefs and beach resorts while a trek through the Sahara can lead visitors to a refreshing oasis. Here’s a look at the best places to visit in Egypt:
Chasing the Best Waterfalls in Norway I Photography Vlog
The epic days in Norway continue as the photography vlog goes waterfall chasing.
I woke up this morning in Bergen, Norway with full intentions on shooting some of the city. Unfortunately, I needed sleep more than I thought. And, I needed to get caught up on some work as well.
So, I had a late departure from town, and decided to go looking for the best waterfalls in Norway.
Norway is home to some of the tallest waterfalls in the world, and definitely the highest in Europe. It seems like there's a new waterfall around every corner here.
I focused on visiting 3 of the major waterfalls in the Bergen area.
I went to Tvindefossen, Skjervsfossen, and ended the photography vlog by shooting Voringfossen. All 3 of these waterfalls are among some of the most epic in all of Europe, and they're all within a short drive of one another.
Of the best waterfalls in Norway, Voringfossen was definitely the most impressive. It's actually two waterfalls tumbling into opposite sides of a valley and the view down the valley beyond them is incredible. It's one of the most photogenic places in the whole country. So, if you're planning on a photography trip to Norway, be sure to hit it up.
I missed the best light at Voringfossen, but still got a photo I absolutely love, so I really can't complain.
I've got 2 more weeks here in Norway, so there will be more waterfall photography in future travel vlogs for sure.
Tomorrow, I head back to Oslo to meet up with my TopDeck Travel group.
The Norway vlogs continue tomorrow and they'll be in 4k!

Bobsledding in Lillehammer and Epic Norway Views | Norway Travel Vlog
Today was an epic day in Norway. We went bobsledding in Lillehammer and then hiked Rampestreken in Andalsnes.
It's time for another 4k Norway vlog. And, today's travel vlog was pretty packed with action. We left Oslo early in the morning and headed towards Lillehammer. The town of Lilliehammer was the host of the 1994 Winter Olympic Games and it is now still a bit of a tourist town. After exploring town a little bit, we headed to the bobsled track. And, for a bit of an adventure we did the bobsledding in Lilliehammer. The bobsledding was intense. We got up to g-forces over 3, and speeds of over 200 km/h. It was bumpy, and wild, and totally fun. I'd definitely like to go bobsledding again at some point.
After leaving Lilliehammer, we headed towards Andalsnes. On the way, we stopped at a really cool Norwegian Stave Church called Ringebu. And, yeah, apparently Ringebu is the actual name; despite my disbelief.
Late in the afternoon we arrived at Andalsnes which is this beautiful little town on the edge of a sharp fjord. The setting of the campground there is just unreal. It's one of the most beautiful places I've been in Norway.
Despite being extremely tired, a crew of us headed up for a hike above Andalsnes called Rampestreken. The trek takes you up near the peak of the mountain and to an insane viewing platform that reaches out into the valley. It's incredible. The hike up Rampestreken was a little bit more challenging than we expected, but we still made it up there in time for some epic light. It is incredible; even at midnight, there's still so much light and it is beautiful. The views from Rampestreken might among the most epic in Norway.
This Norway travel vlog ends there in Andalsnes.
Tomorrow, I'll be back at the 4k Norway vlogs with an episode cruising through the Troll's Pass which is supposed to be one of the most beautiful drives in the world. Stay tuned.

World's Scariest Selfie? Trolltunga Norway Travel Vlog
Is Trolltunga the world's scariest selfie?
See my photos from Troll's Tongue on Instagram at @brendanvanson.
I woke up before sunrise today (which was 4am and only a couple hours after I finally went to bed) to photograph Trolltunga, which is known in English as The Troll's Tongue.
This spot in Norway has become famous because it might be the scariest selfie in the world. Or, maybe just the most epic. The Troll's Tongue hangs over a fjord some 900m and it is absolutely epic. Not only is the location insane, but it is one of the most beautiful places in Norway as well.
I wanted to get a couple shots for some clients that I thought would be cool from on top of Trolltunga, so I braced my nerves and headed out onto the ledge for my shots. The more times I stood out there shooting my selfie, the easier it got. But, I'd be lying if I said that the first couple shots weren't beyond terrifying.
But as scary as it might have been, it was also the world's most epic selfie spot.
After getting my images with Trolltunga all to myself, I headed back into my tent. And, luckily I did. Just as I did we got hammered with rain.
I hid out in my tent until about noon. Then, when I realized that the rains weren't going to stop, I started the Trolltunga hike back to the parking lot. It was such an epic 24 hours up in this part of Norway, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't happy to see my car again. My legs were crushed from the hike to Trolltunga and I was in desperate need for a shower and a good meal.
So, I continued with the Norway vlog by pushing on to the city of Bergen where I'd eventually give myself a bit of a break at a decent hotel room.
Tomorrow, the Norway travel vlog is back as I head out searching out some of Southern Norway's coolest waterfalls.
The Most Beautiful Country in the World
OK, I'll admit it, Norway is the most beautiful country in the world. At least of the 100 I've seen.
My trip with TopDeck Travel continued north up through Norway today. And, again, I still don't have audio due to my vlogging fail the other day. But, luckily, when you're in a country as beautiful as Norway you can almost don't need sound. You can just sit and enjoy the beauty.
By basically day 2 of this trip through Norway I thought it might be the most beautiful country in the world, or at least the most beautiful I've been to. However, I wanted to reserve judgement until I saw more of it. Now, having seen it from top to bottom, I can be sure it's the most beautiful country in the world. And, while I've only seen 100 countries, it would be really hard to beat the sheer beauty of this country. In fact, there are still so many incredible places in Norway that I haven't seen that seem like they'll be absolutely incredible, maybe even more impressive than any of the other places I've been here.
So, on this vlog, we continued soaking in that amazing beauty of this country. We started by visiting a place called Svartisen Glacier which is a boat ride and a hike away. The trip is incredibly beautiful and there were loads of photos to be had along the way.
After our excursion to Svartisen, we made our way even farther norther here in Norway. In fact, we crossed the arctic circle today. So, now I've been across both the arctic and antarctic circles which is pretty cool.
Then, in the evening we got to our campsite, and my audio finally came back. So, to celebrate, we had a few drinks and enjoyed a bit of the midnight sun.
Tomorrow, there will be another vlog from here in the most beautiful country in the world as we again push farther north here in Norway.
Norway In Summer, Heaven On Earth
The best time to visit Norway perfect for most tourists is late spring and early summer, especially the months of June and July. The weather is gorgeous and the landscape is covered in a thick blanket of grass and multi color flowers.
