This week’s black and white challenge is Faraway. Beyond the trees is Levi Ski Resort lit by the low winter sun.
Mountain
Stone Spiral
Saana, Kilpisjarvi
Stairway to Saana
KilpisJarvi, Finland
742 steps lead up the 1,029m tall Saana fell from KilpisJarvi in Finland. Once you have climbed one of Finland’s longest staircases you are only a third of the way to the top and magnificent views over the surrounding Finnish landscape, you can even see to Norway.
See my gallery below, Saana From Every Angle.

Saana and kilpisjarvi feature in my post 5 things to do in Finnish Lapland in Summer.
Inspiration
Magerøya, Norway
The only thing more inspiring than walking to the top of a mountain and looking over the surrounding scenery is having the chance to photograph it.
Troll Hunter
Norway
Driving in Norway took so much longer as we had to stop every five minutes to take photographs of the impressive scenery. Not sure who this guy is meant to be but I like to think if troll hunters where real this is what they would look like.
