Norwegian photograph­er and Canon Ambassador Audun Rikardsen says that Canon L-series lenses help him capture the majesty of nature in his photograph­s of whales during Norway’s polar night. “In the last few winters, hundreds of humpback whales have arrived at Tromsø in Northern Norway to feed on overwinter­ing herring. They come during the polar night, where there’s no sun above the horizon, making the light and the weather conditions challengin­g. The Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM is my favourite lens for photograph­ing the whales during this period because of its robustness, large aperture and accurate focus during low-light conditions. It always delivers, even in the most challengin­g of conditions!”
