Description
Prenez part à cet atelier photo épique aurores boréales et grotte de glace vous emmenant chasser la plus belle lumière à travers les paysages magnifiques d'Islande. Ce voyage se concentre sur la capture de paysages hivernaux, de grotte de glace et d'aurores boréales.
Lors de ce voyage, vous découvrez les plus beaux sites du Sud de l'Islande dont le parc national Vatnajokull, la lagune glaciaire de Jokulsarlon et sa plage de diamants. Cet atelier photo comprend également la visite unique d'une grotte de glace naturelle. Sous les conditions météos optimales, les grottes révèlent leur couleur bleue intense. Vous évoluez en petit groupe et êtes accompagnés d'un guide photographe qui est là pour vous aiguiller et vous faire progresser en photo.
Un voyage hivernal en Islande ne serait pas complet sans les aurores boréales. Ces lumières flamboyantes et gracieuses du ciel Arctique sont le résultat d'un phénomène naturel engendré par l'activité solaire. De fines particules solaires chargées sont propulsées vers la Terre et dirigées vers les pôles par le bouclier magnétique pour finalement rentrer en collision avec l'atmosphère. Plusieurs facteurs déterminent quand il est possible de voir des aurores ce qui renforce les chances d'aboutir à la meilleure expérience. Cela inclut des ciels étoilés, une saison favorable, de bonnes conditions météorologiques, de prendre son temps et de trouver un bon lieu d'observation. Les aurores boréales sont une des merveilles que vous pouvez voir en Islande.

These days he works as a nature photographer, mostly leading expert tours across the stunning nordic nations. He is an ambassador for the Lucroit filter system, and has won awards in a range of international photography contests.

Siggi was born in Iceland and has spent most of his photography career in this paradise.During his time as a photographer, he early on found that his passion lies with photographing the beautiful landscapes and nightscapes of Iceland. One of his favorite activities is being out, chasing the northern lights and thinking of new ways to top his shots.
He has won multiple awards for his work, both locally and internationally, especially for his photos of the Aurora Borealis. Sigurdur has also written a book on the subject to aid everyone in getting the perfect shots of Lady Aurora and held nightscape photography workshops in Iceland since the beginning of 2012 with great success.
When the days get longer and the northern lights fade into the daylight, he turns his eyes towards the sun and the amazing midnight sun that Iceland has to offer with the golden hours that seem to stretch on forever.

Being out in nature with a camera and a tripod can be like a form of meditation – a soothing, peaceful experience that has the potential to lift you out of this world.
For Brynjar Ágústsson, a native Icelandic professional landscape photographer, there is simply nothing more satisfying. A former member of the Rimmugýgur Icelandic Viking Community from Hafnarfjördur, Brynjar is acquainted with even the most hidden corners of Iceland and knows every magical location like the back of his hand.
This former parachute jumper, windsurfer and mountain guide has amassed a wealth of experience from guiding countless photography tours, finding himself at his absolute best when outdoors in the wilderness with a camera in hand.
Well-versed in Lightroom and Photoshop, Brynjar’s work has been featured in many magazines, commercials and exhibitions around the world. He has a deep-rooted interest in keeping abreast with the ongoing technological and ideological advancements in photography, as well as a keen eye for composition and light.

Brynjar’s passion for Icelandic nature is quickly mirrored by all those who join him during every journey. Says the man himself, “In our photo tours, you are in the right place at the right time when the beauty of nature’s show begins.”

Vincenzo Mazza
Voir profilVincenzo is a nature and landscape photographer. He has been doing landscape photography since 2010, mostly between Italy and Iceland. Born in Italy he moved to Iceland in 2015, after spending many months in that country during the years before to practice landscape photography.
He has been teaching photography and running photo tours since 2011, mostly in Iceland and in Italy. In 2015 he was among the winner photographers of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year international nature photography competition.
In Iceland he become a mountain and a glacier guide, and he is now an official member of the association of the Icelandic mountain guides.
Regarding his approach to photography, he like to consider himself a storyteller. He believes that his pictures are the result of diligence, creativity and technical skills in the field but most of all unconditional love for nature landscapes.
He would define his pictures as “authentic”, they are a faithful representation of the reality at the moment of the photo shooting, prior to all the obvious adjustments which are essential to the optimization of the picture.
Regarding that aspect, he said: “Nature is so impressive, inspiring and magnificent! if I created pictures with Photoshop, mixing up places and different moments I wouldn’t be the storyteller I want to be. Photography is an interpretation of an evanescent moment. Intuition and passion are needed on the playground of nature”.

When one speaks of travel and landscape photography at its apex, his name quickly comes to mind. Well known locally and gaining recognition abroad for his ethereal landscape images, his works exemplify landscape photography as a fine art.
A former medical and corporate professional, Edwin has found his niche and true calling in landscape photography.

By virtue of his acknowledged skill and influence, he has been tapped to field test and help in the launch of a number of new photography gear. His works have graced both local and overseas publications and websites. Edwin’s images surely speak the language that draws attention and leaves an indelible mark of excellence.
