Ola, I've just been looking at some of your other videos on YouTube...

What a beautiful and stunning playground!
I like some of your music too

I've been to Norway many times but only seen it buried under snow :( when I was with the RAF (we spent three months there every year - Jan Feb March)
Whereabouts are these films taken?

Thanks!
Music is actually one of the hard parts when making videos like this.. To find something "most people" like, harmonize with the footage, that youtube actually allows without restriction..

April to december is mostly snow free all over Norway, except in the mountains ofcourse..
All my videos are from the area i live, Sunndalsora..
Vinnufossen, the huge waterfall in the video, is the 6th highest waterfall in the world (so they say), and thats 2 kilometers from my house :)

Oh wow that's a fair way north.
When I was there with the RAF, we always started off in Voss (Bømoen army base) where we were in proper accommodation and did a lot of arctic survival and avalanche classwork and a bit of camping in the hills, snow-holes included. While doing that we were also operating 33 Sqn Puma helicopters from the airfield there. I have happy memories of Voss because I had plenty of time off and learned to ski there.
After a few weeks in Voss we'd head north (usually by ferry and usually to Trondheim) then drive endless miles in trucks with all our equipment and set-up camp somewhere, from then on we would be in tents. Everything was fine so long as the weather didn't thaw.
Sometimes we would have to advance or retreat, packing up the camp to move - folding up canvas tents that had thawed and frozen again was like folding sheets of steel.

I've been showing your videos to friends family; even the neighbours! Everyone is completely blown away by the scenery and the videos - the bike chase down that track is outrageous.

WOW that's some awesome flying Ola......amazing control, have to admit I would love to do drone flying, but so far each time I've tried to fly its ended in tears so have given up on that for the moment.

Have to say your very lucky living in Norway, I think it's probably one of my favourite countries (England is always first though ;) :laugh: ) worked over there many times in the summer and winter. Such a beautiful country and stunning scenery, still to make it further north than Bergen, but will make it one day. Most of my trips have been around Kristiansand area and Oslo.

Definitely going to bring my Son over and see if we can see the northern lights one winter, even tempted to do a road trip from south to north and back, although my wife isn't quite as excited about that idea as me :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
