The raining has finally stopped but the wind is still an issue, and it gave me problems during our morning shoot at Gjógv. All of my frames were soft due to vibration, so every one of them went down to trash. I’m not as heartbroken as that may sound though, because the composition wasn’t really that good…

We are really getting to see the nasty side of the weather in the islands. The wind is relentless and it’s still raining, but what is that to an intrepid group of photographers? We were out and about early in the morning, as usual. We drove to Tjørnuvík, where the bay is somewhat sheltered from the…

The weather forecast doesn’t look very promising, it’s going to be heavy winds and rain for two days now. But, never say die, we ventured out anyway and actually got quite a good session in the morning. We drove to Gjógv to catch some wave action again. The cliffs weren’t quite as slippery as yesterday…

Sun rises so late that we have time to eat breakfast at the hotel before heading out. This is going to be the routine for the whole week – early breakfast, lunch on the road, back to the hotel for dinner. We spent the first morning in Syðradalur, it’s a place with lava rock formations…

A couple of years ago I decided to explore all of the Nordics, not just the five countries, but the autonomous areas as well – Åland, Greenland, Svalbard and the Faroe Islands. I visited Åland ages ago as a teen but it counts, Greenland in 2015 and Svalbard last year. Which then only left Faroe Islands and…

Apart from the afternoon on the first day and yesterday, we’ve been blessed with great weather this week. Even too good at times! And today was shaping up to be a great one, as the the rain from yesterday had turned into snow overnight and we got to drive through a gorgeous white landscape to…

In the morning we drove to Fjaðrárgljúfur (yeah I won’t try to pronounce it either), the canyon where we experienced some of the worst weather two years ago. The wind was so hard that it wasn’t possible to walk into it because the rain hurt on the face! No problems with either wind or rain this…

We are going to Landmannalaugar today which is a new place for me, and one that I’ve really been looking forward to seeing! It’s another of the iconic places in Iceland and the road there proved it – it’s well trafficked, not in the sense that there were a lot of cars on the road this…

Our morning spot was familiar to me and not in a good way, I struggled here at Dýrholaey two years ago. I was not excited about this new opportunity and spent the first part of the morning just walking around. I finally decided that I have to at least try and found two options, and…

Our first day in the highlands was another familiar place for me, but the weather couldn’t have been more different than two years ago. It was still a bit cloudy in the morning, but the clouds faded fast and all we got was blue skies! On top of that, it was almost calm. I could…
