Mølte (Cloudberry), Norway. 

Last year summer,  I was on a mountain tour to Selletfjellet, sørtrondelag Norway. When we arrived to the top of the mountain, the area was covered by Ripe cloudberries or locally named as Mølte. We couldn't even stop piking them with our full hands. It was a beautiful and sweet trophy for our summer mountain journey. It is always beautiful capturing macro pictures of sweet and colorful berries. 

According to wikipedia, Rubus chamaemorus (Greeek chamai"on the ground", moros"mulberry") is a rhizomatous herb native to alpine and arctic tundra and boreal forest, producing amber-colored edible fruit similar to the raspberry or blackberry. Unlike most Rubus species, the cloudberry is dioecious.
