Danka for all the music ideas. One of the problems of using commerical music is copy rights. Artists such as musicans should get paid & unless they say its ok to use the music its copy right infringement. Most musicans often say no because of their music publishers. Would love to use the music you told me about - I use "commons" music that people have created & I give them credit. Then I can edit anyway I need fit. Often people don't give credit to those common site musicans, I do.

My camera was a Nikon D-90 Lens 18-70, No filter, just took a lot a photos and published most. If the scenery and events are interesting and unusual its easy to get good photos, Just alway think of what the other person might want to learn or see. I tell stories of things that interest me. There appears to be hundreds of these kinds of get togethers. In minnesota we have clubs that explore sewers, people that dress up like vampires and bar hop, festivals of all kinds to photograph

Yeah, I've been to Lofotr last year, but we had bad weather. You seem to have had more luck ;-) I would have rather chosen some Wardruna as music though. Great pictures!

Now I have to learn what Wardruna is and download some of the music. Thanks for the idea for music in the future. Will have to listen to Wardruna, never heard of the style or band. Thanks.

Great photos! What type of camera did you use? The light is fantastic, did you use any filters? First half is my favorite - love to see the natural dyeing and the weaving too. My son loves the weapons and the battle of course :)

just wow... i need to get to that side of the world. Australia is too far for a girl with a Viking soul like i!

[DethMetalNinja1]

Is there anything like this in the U.S?

[condorlegion89]

Where are the berserkers?

[halluechen]

They are a band that's composing traditional viking-music, using self-built traditional instruments. On flickr there is a photo gallery showing how they did their instruments and you can find videos on youtube.
