Hamnøy is a beautiful fishing village located on the island of Moskenesøya in the Lofoten archipelago in northern Norway. It is famous for its traditional red fishing houses, known as "rorbuer", which stretch along the coast with beautiful views of the mountains and the sea. The photo shows a dramatic change in the weather, which is not in short supply in these places. A snow storm alternates with clear weather and that is why this place is so visited by photographers from all over the world.

Hi, my name is Martin Morávek and I come from Jablonec nad Nisou. I got into photography completely by accident sometime in 2019, when I occasionally took a trip with a borrowed camera and the desire to capture something interesting. I took photos of almost everything and I gradually discovered that each genre has its own specifics and know-how – street photography, architecture, sports, culture, landscape, but after the initial exploration I started to enjoy landscape photography the most. But it doesn't end there for me :-)
