Winter in Træna, Norway
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Top AirVuz contributor Eaglewood Pictures brings us this marvelous drone tour of an island archipelago off the Norwegian coast. Træna is a municipality which consists of about a thousand (mostly) tiny islands, of which only four are inhabited. Lying well to the south of the better-known Lofoten Islands, Træna is part of a historical region known as Helgeland which is essentially the southern portion of Nordland County, the southernmost of the three counties of Northern Norway.

Træna, located on the Arctic Circle 33 nautical miles off Helgeland coast, is Norway’s oldest fishing community and an archipelago of more than 1000 small, flat skerries, only five of which are inhabited. Of these, Husøy has most of Træna's population and the adjacent island of Sanna features an iconic miniature mountain range running the length of its spine and culminating with the 318m high Trænstaven spire. Despite the beautiful surroundings, only two islanders still live on Sanna year round. Træna is a small yet diverse, creative and vibrant community with its own Artist Residence that welcomes creatives, businesses and chefs from all over the World. I was lucky enough to be part of it in winter 2019 and shoot these visuals alongside my photography work: www.eaglewood.pictures/norway
