About six months ago I traveled to Iceland for the first time with a few close friends. It was an incredible experience filled with adventure and I remember thinking, "I need to get back to this place as soon as possible" on my flight home. I was shooting a lot of photos for myself and also for some clients of mine but along the way I made it a point to shoot as much film as I could. Here are a few of those film shots that I took while adventuring in Iceland.
This picture is of a very popular waterfall in Iceland called Skogafoss. Although we were traveling to Iceland during a cold season when we thought we would see very few visitors, this waterfall was still packed with tourists.
While on this trip, we made it a point to see as much of the south coast as possible but also made our way out to the Westfjords as we heard it was a very amazing place that doesn't see as much tourist activity due to its remoteness. This is a picture taken in the morning while we drove around these incredible fjords.
Another shot taken in the Westfjords as we round the corner of a fjord and can see a small port city in the distance. It takes so much longer than you think to get around these fjords and seeing your destination in the distance is the ultimate tease.
The weather in Iceland is really crazy and seemed to change by the minute while we were visiting. For 5 minutes it might be crazy 50 mph winds with pouring rain and just seconds later it would be sunny clear skies with no wind at all. If you've been to Iceland, you know exactly what I'm talking about.
Thanks for checking out the pics and I hope you enjoyed.
