Scandinavia, the call of the North is an immersion in the Norwegian National Parks through the perspective of Vincent Munier, renowned photographer and a lover of nature. Peat bogs, the taiga tinged with autumn colours, the tundra high altitude plateau in the heart of the winter... Landscape after landscape the photographer shared his experience of live in the wilderness and the images of the animal kingdom. Scandinavia, the call of the North is an immersion in the Norwegian National Parks through the perspective of Vincent Munier, renowned photographer and a lover of nature. Peat bogs, the taiga tinged with autumn colours, the tundra and high altitude plateaus in the heart of the winter... Landscape after landscape the photographer shared his experience of live in the wilderness and the images of the animal kingdom. Unusual encounters with polar foxes, timeless shots of reindeers, close-ups of muskoxes... This photographic journey reveals the Norther expanses from a new perspective, intimate and poetic even in the most difficult circumstances.
