Ytresand is a chalk-white beach with crystal clear waters. And what could be more magical than watching a spectacular Northern Lights display from a beach? The photographer of this beautiful picture is René Ringnes from Moss.

Svolværgeita is a rocky pinnacle that proudly rises 356 metres above the town of Svolvær. It is one of the most widely-known images from Lofoten. Rita Christensen from Moss has shared this exciting holiday photo with us.

Imagine a hairy and social, four-legged creature. Multiply it several hundred times and place them in the middle of the E39 road by Skei, and you get utter traffic chaos! But for a young Spanish boy it was a dream experience. His mother, Carolina Llodra Millás from Girona in Spain, snapped this photo.

The village of Olden and beautiful Nordfjord can take anyone's breath away. And when you find a vantage point and enjoy the turquoise fjord far below, surrounded by majestic mountains, does it get any better than this? The moment was captured by Rita Arhaug from Fosnavåg.

The photo of Hovdsundet by Bodø is sent in by Jan Finstad from Bodø. Getting to this spectacular double beach involves a half-hour car journey plus a 6 to 7 kilometre hike. You won't regret it!

Trondheim has plenty to offer. The river Nidelven flows like a vital artery through the city, reflecting the beautiful wharf buildings that stand along its banks, beautifully captured by Nathalie Monnier from Ayent, Switzerland on a cycling holiday in Norway.
