‘Het is niet makkelijk om in het donker te fotograferen, maar Sander van der Werf slaagde er toch in om het bijzondere outdoorgevoel van een overnachting in de natuur vast te leggen. Hij maakte deze foto van een reiziger bij haar tent aan de voet van de berg Nallo in Zweeds Lapland. De foto vat het gevoel van avontuur van een reis door dit land perfect samen. Aart Aarsbergen: ‘alles klopt aan dit beeld, de sterrenhemel, het verlichte tentje omlijst door het berglandschap. Het is een bijzonder sfeervol beeld, technisch in orde, met een evenwichtige compositie.’
