Entry Description

In the North, I saw the granite peaks smoke like volcanoes in the middle of the night. I saw the Gods of Valhalla stretch out their limbs towards the land. I saw the spirits of deceased men and women escape our world, in their quest for a place to rest in peace. I saw foxes paint the skies with their tails. I saw dragons exhale their breath in the sky and spirits of warriors dance in the black of the night. I saw schools of herring reflected in the sky, moving in unison among the stars. But when I came home, they told me I had seen the Northern Lights... What do they know?

About Photographer

Rafael Rojas was born in Spain 35 years ago. After a career spanning 10 years as an engineer and researcher/lecturer at the university he made a dramatic change by becoming a full time fine art photographer of the natural environment, his true passion and vocation. Today, he travels the wildest regions of our planet with a tripod on his shoulder, always in search of those fleeting moments when personal vision, light and land combine to create sheer magic and inspire the soul.
