Summer picture of the week: A sunset radiance on the Swedish seashore

In the heart of the Swedish summer, environmental mapping specialist Davaasuren found herself capturing a moment of breathtaking beauty during a family road trip to the Lofoten Islands in Norway.

The vibrant sunset, with its red and blue hues, painted a mesmerising picture over a picturesque harbour in a port town. Davaasuren, who currently resides in Helsingborg, Sweden, was quick to immortalise this spectacle.

Davaasuren, who moved to Sweden in 2019 with her Danish husband, is no stranger to the outdoors. Along with their dog, the family frequently enjoys the great Swedish summer weather, making this serendipitous moment even more special.

To submit her photograph for consideration in The Local's "Photo of the Week" series, Davaasuren emailed her image to [email protected] with the subject "Photo of the Week." She also included a brief description of the photo and its location.

While The Local's submission guidelines for their photo series aren't explicitly stated in search results, typical practices for media outlets like The Local often require sending photos via email or an online form, including photographer details and a brief description or caption, and adhering to specified themes or technical requirements (file format, resolution).

It's worth noting that The Local's "Photo of the Week" series also accepts submissions via a weekly Facebook post.

Despite the occasional rain showers, Davaasuren and her husband have grown to love the Swedish summer climate. The rainy days, they believe, only add to the country's unique charm.

With her winning submission, Davaasuren not only captured the beauty of the Lofoten Islands but also showcased the enchanting allure of Swedish summers, making it a perfect fit for The Local's "Photo of the Week."
