I went there last year on a work trip to Vegas, on hearing us going I thought “wow a big hole” but when I got there it flipped my perspective on it. It really is something you need to see in person to fully take in the scale of what you’re looking at. Insane

Backstory: I came to Lofoten to witness some Auroras and of course take photos of them, but what that single night put on display was past all belief. There was a heavy sunstorm hitting earth and clear skies so everything was pretty much perfect. 🥳

If you would like to see some more photos and stories feel free to scroll through www.instagram.com/wim_air - appreciate it! 😇

I was there a few years ago, your picture is stunning. However no matter how good the photo is they don’t do it any justice. You need to see it I person to truly appreciate the size, depth, and beauty.

You are correct: there ticks in New Zealand

Ministry of Health information -

New Zealand has endemic ticks (i.e., they occur here and nowhere else in the world). These species are host-specific and infest mainly birds. Endemic New Zealand ticks generally do not transmit diseases to humans.

There is also an introduced species of tick in New Zealand – the brown cattle tick (Haemaphysalis longicornis), which can infest warm-blooded mammals (such as cattle or humans). In some parts of the world the cattle tick is known as vector of animal and human diseases, such as tick borne fever, Japanese (Oriental) spotted fever, Russian spring-summer encephalitis. However, these diseases are not present in New Zealand.
