Currently away from the desk doing this and other work-related assignments in Swedish Lapland. Photography and other write-ups coming sometime next week once I get back.
Please bear with me. Will catch up on work, emails, and other important items then.

Wow – the link is great Lola. So many great photos. That is a killer assignment you’ve pulled. I am very jealous!
Wow, Lola, this is gorgeous.
@Jeff – Thanks! I’m extremely stoked about it. Seriously though, no need to be “jealous” though I understand the sentiment behind it.
What may seem like a cool path for others may actually not be the right one for you or me. This is just another way for photographers to work with their local boards/travel organizations, depending on the ultimate goals of the photographer as well.
@Hal – Blushing. Thank you!
Lola- Continuously amazed that you’re able to survive this cold.
You’re killing me with these awesome snow shots, Lola! Thanks for experiencing this and photographing it so I can see the beauty without having to be in the snow
Is it bad that my first reaction was “OH lookit at the cutie doggie butts!!”?
Gorgeous pic though. I’m shivering on your behalf!
@Julie – Haha. The Urb takes care of that
@Ekua – Thanks! After a little bit of time, you just get used to it…breathing through nose/mouth closed so as not to get the cold in one’s throat/etc
@Michelle – Cutie doggie butts, along with puppies and babies always works
Thanks!
Go team Lola! Are you really driving that sled? if so I bow to your snowy ninja powers!!
Now that is a picture perfect postcard shot. We have yet to go dogsledding and have always wanted to. So very jealous:)
Amazing pics, looks like you have done some serious travelling..
My name is Jennie and I just wantet do let you know that there now is a webpage called theultimatetourist.com where travellers finally can get some use from all these photos they have, posing by different tourist attractions all over the world.
Here you can choose from nearly 150 different attractions and typical touristic activities, upload your photos and collect one tourist-point for each photo, reach different levels and everybody over 80 points will be ultimate tourists.
Remember you have to be in the photo yourself to prove you where actually there..
So if you want to write something about it, or compete with your own photos, just go into theultimatetourist.com
Good luck on your travels!

[...] Three weeks ago, I was in Swedish Lapland covering the now 406 year old Sámi market, meeting and interviewing lots of intriguing people like Greta Huuva, Ylva-Marie Paval, and Lennart Pittja, and tirelessly chasing down stories and potential ideas, with the result being hundreds of photos that needed to be sorted, tons of really cool stories I’ll be sharing, and plans to go back up north to work on a few projects within the Sápmi region.
