Photographing Ice in Iceland

I have found that, in my many journeys to Iceland, photographing the ice tends to drive my passion like no other landscape. The ever-changing colours, shapes, and luminosity of the ice, create a primal force of nature that continually draws me deeper into each scene. The glacial lagoons of the Vatnajökull ice cap- Fjallsárlón and Jökulsárlón are a photographer’s paradise. They are easily accessible, yet because of the kinetic existence of the glacier they are never the same. They are a definite bucket list location for any photographer.

Falling in Love with Iceland

It was a regular day back in June of 2012, I was having some drinks with a couple of my best buddies talking photography.

Stuðlagil — The Magical Basalt Column Canyon

Basalt columns are a fascinating land formation that photographers are easily drawn to. When in small numbers, the multiple stacks of hexagonal rocks often form an ideal foreground or background for landscape photography. These columns’ regularity is stunning and almost unbelievable and can often be mistaken for man-made creations rather than a part of solidifying lava or creation of Mother Nature. The visual experience is often so unique that their regularity is often described as magical. When you add the basalt column to other phenomena in nature, like a stream of spring fed water

My Experience on a Photo Workshop With Iceland Photo Tours

For several years, I have realised that I was not only taking photographs whilst travelling but starting to define my travels and destinations based upon whether they would be suitable for my photographic interests. This is how it came about that I considered joining a photo workshop to take my photography another level higher. So in February 2016, I decided to explore Iceland with a perspective on winter. During my research, I stumbled upon information in relation to Iceland Photo Tours. A brief look at the portfolio of its founder, Iurie Belegurschi, as well as the cool team of brilliant pho

Travelling to Greenland for Photography

As I write this blog, I am on an Air Greenland flight from Ilulissat to Nuuk and have just been informed by the captain that we are in a holding pattern, as the weather in Nuuk has deteriorated, and we are unable to land. Such is travel in Greenland. Greenland.com currently has an internet campaign running, #GreenlandPioneer, that seeks those traveling to Greenland to post images and stories of their journeys. I would submit that this is a rather accurate portrayal of travels to this amazing country, and that being a Pioneer is part of the reality, and part of the fun. In

Photos of Iceland from the Sky

Everyone knows that Iceland has amazing landscapes throughout the whole country. But Iceland doesn’t only look beautiful from the ground. It also looks incredible from the sky. On a recent flight, I had the opportunity to expand my aerial photography portfolio and focused on mostly top down images. Photographing top down is not easy. The landscapes look completely different than you’re used to. It’s like seeing a whole new world. New ‘paintings’ go by every second and you have to be quick to capture them properly. Rivers, ground textures, valleys... they all

A Life-Changing Experience In Iceland

Although I was born and raised in Denmark, visiting Iceland has always felt like coming “home”. My first visit to Iceland as a photographer was in the fall of 2015, where my adventures began in the east. I had spent three days on the ferry from my home country and I was hungry to start photographing. Having been accustomed to the flatness of the Danish landscapes, my visit to Iceland seemed somewhat out of this world! I felt a mix of freedom, joy and creativity, which I had never experienced before. Northern Lights over Kirkjufell. Photo by: 'Mads Peter Iversen'. See also:

Females in Landscape and Nature Photography

Landscape photography has always been one of the most, if not the most popular branch of photography. It has a universal appeal, allowing viewers to feel carried to places and landscapes that they might never otherwise have the chance to see. Unfortunately, it is a fact that there are very few female landscape photographers in the industry, rather definitely only a few ‘recognised’ female landscape photographers. While women have made huge progress in certain fields of this historically male-dominated environment, we are still lagging behind as far as the landscape photography genr

A Beginner's Guide to Aerial Photography in Iceland

Are you afraid of heights? Don’t be. Aerial photography can be really daunting and intimidating at first, but if you let your fear get the best out of you, you are bound to miss out on a lot. There is so much to see in Iceland from the sky. What's more, the landscape looks completely different from up there than it does with your feet planted firmly on the ground. There are so many reasons that you should get up in the air for photography in Iceland and in this article, I'll explain exactly why.

Photo Gallery of Glaciers and Ice Caves in Iceland

They are portrayed as white, empty spaces, as if something was missing. It is almost as if the landscape architect forgot to put an actual landscape in these white gaps – mountains, roads, trees, everything seems to have disappeared.

Photo Gallery of Bardarbunga Volcano and the Holuhraun Eruption

Bardarbunga and the Holuhraun eruption in Iceland. Iceland is known for being the Land of Ice and Fire as it has a high concentration of active volcanoes. The reason for that is its location on the mid-Atlantic Ridge. Iceland has about 30 active volcanic systems, of which 13 have erupted since the settlement of the island. In Iceland there are four volcanic zones; the Reykjanes Ridge, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, West and North Volcanic Zones and the East Volcanic Zone that are all connected across central Iceland with the Mid-Iceland Belt. The most catastrophic volcanic eruption in the history

Interesting Waterfalls in Iceland for Photographers

One of the first things you are bound to notice when you visit Iceland, while driving around the country and traveling from one region to another, is water—flowing in streams, creeks, and rivers down slopes and under bridges or finding its way through the neighbourhood of a small town or from the centre of a mountain. There is no dearth of water in Iceland. The small island could fulfil the water needs—domestic and industrial—of the entire population of North America or Europe. Water is a big part of the Icelandic landscape and part of the some of the most fascinating n

Háifoss is More Than One Waterfall

The second highest waterfall in Iceland is Háifoss (The High Waterfall). Fed by the river Fossá (Waterfall River), it is located at the edge of the Icelandic Highlands (usually defined as the interior area of land above 350 meters in altitude). It is a popular attraction for a good reason, especially for photographers, as both the waterfall and its surroundings are quite impressive.

A little while ago, I was excited to be returning on another photography trip to the picturesque Scottish Highlands. There was only one slight problem: I'd just fractured my leg! It was the result of an unfortunate misadventure that could have been much worse, so I counted myself lucky. However, I was due to head to Glencoe where I would meet my fellow photographer, Phil Buckle, in just a couple of days. Our photo tour of Scotland had been planned for months and suddenly, I'd found myself hobbling, grimacing, and munching on the maximum dose of over-the-counter painkillers. Well, I ha

Stuðlagil — The Magical Basalt Column Canyon

Basalt columns are a fascinating land formation that photographers are easily drawn to. When in small numbers, the multiple stacks of hexagonal rocks often form an ideal foreground or background for landscape photography. These columns’ regularity is stunning and almost unbelievable and can often be mistaken for man-made creations rather than a part of solidifying lava or creation of Mother Nature. The visual experience is often so unique that their regularity is often described as magical. When you add the basalt column to other phenomena in nature, like a stream of spring fed water

The Colourful Mountains of Landmannalaugar are a Photographers’ Paradise

There are several places in Iceland where you can capture a fascinating landscape — landforms and natural wonders that display stunning motifs and give you unique photos. From the coastline up to the mountains, there are a variety of places and natural gems to photograph all over this volcanically active island. But of all the landscape flora we have in Iceland, some places are still more interesting than others. These places are packed with ingredients for the perfect photo and seem to call out to the camera at every step you take. One such place is Landmannalaugar. Located in the Icela

Háifoss is More Than One Waterfall

The second highest waterfall in Iceland is Háifoss (The High Waterfall). Fed by the river Fossá (Waterfall River), it is located at the edge of the Icelandic Highlands (usually defined as the interior area of land above 350 meters in altitude). It is a popular attraction for a good reason, especially for photographers, as both the waterfall and its surroundings are quite impressive. The fall is 120 meters and, like most waterfalls in Iceland, its volume varies between seasons. In spring and early summer, the volume is higher than in winter as the snow in the Highlands melts and

Interesting Waterfalls in Iceland for Photographers

One of the first things you are bound to notice when you visit Iceland, while driving around the country and traveling from one region to another, is water—flowing in streams, creeks, and rivers down slopes and under bridges or finding its way through the neighbourhood of a small town or from the centre of a mountain. There is no dearth of water in Iceland. The small island could fulfil the water needs—domestic and industrial—of the entire population of North America or Europe. Water is a big part of the Icelandic landscape and part of the some of the most fascinating n

Photo Gallery of Bardarbunga Volcano and the Holuhraun Eruption

Bardarbunga and the Holuhraun eruption in Iceland. Iceland is known for being the Land of Ice and Fire as it has a high concentration of active volcanoes. The reason for that is its location on the mid-Atlantic Ridge. Iceland has about 30 active volcanic systems, of which 13 have erupted since the settlement of the island. In Iceland there are four volcanic zones; the Reykjanes Ridge, the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, West and North Volcanic Zones and the East Volcanic Zone that are all connected across central Iceland with the Mid-Iceland Belt. The most catastrophic volcanic eruption in the history

Photo Gallery of Glaciers and Ice Caves in Iceland

They are portrayed as white, empty spaces, as if something was missing. It is almost as if the landscape architect forgot to put an actual landscape in these white gaps – mountains, roads, trees, everything seems to have disappeared. On a map they are the error that the artist erased. Dead areas. Ice caves are magical. Photo by: 'Iurie Belegurschi'.

A Beginner's Guide to Aerial Photography in Iceland

Are you afraid of heights? Don’t be. Aerial photography can be really daunting and intimidating at first, but if you let your fear get the best out of you, you are bound to miss out on a lot. There is so much to see in Iceland from the sky. What's more, the landscape looks completely different from up there than it does with your feet planted firmly on the ground. There are so many reasons that you should get up in the air for photography in Iceland and in this article, I'll explain exactly why.

Females in Landscape and Nature Photography

Landscape photography has always been one of the most, if not the most popular branch of photography. It has a universal appeal, allowing viewers to feel carried to places and landscapes that they might never otherwise have the chance to see. Unfortunately, it is a fact that there are very few female landscape photographers in the industry, rather definitely only a few ‘recognised’ female landscape photographers. While women have made huge progress in certain fields of this historically male-dominated environment, we are still lagging behind as far as the landscape photography genr

A Life-Changing Experience In Iceland

Although I was born and raised in Denmark, visiting Iceland has always felt like coming “home”. My first visit to Iceland as a photographer was in the fall of 2015, where my adventures began in the east. I had spent three days on the ferry from my home country and I was hungry to start photographing. Having been accustomed to the flatness of the Danish landscapes, my visit to Iceland seemed somewhat out of this world! I felt a mix of freedom, joy and creativity, which I had never experienced before. Northern Lights over Kirkjufell. Photo by: 'Mads Peter Iversen'. See also:

My Experience on a Photo Workshop With Iceland Photo Tours

For several years, I have realised that I was not only taking photographs whilst travelling but starting to define my travels and destinations based upon whether they would be suitable for my photographic interests. This is how it came about that I considered joining a photo workshop to take my photography another level higher. So in February 2016, I decided to explore Iceland with a perspective on winter. During my research, I stumbled upon information in relation to Iceland Photo Tours. A brief look at the portfolio of its founder, Iurie Belegurschi, as well as the cool team of brilliant pho

Photos of Iceland from the Sky

Everyone knows that Iceland has amazing landscapes throughout the whole country. But Iceland doesn’t only look beautiful from the ground. It also looks incredible from the sky. On a recent flight, I had the opportunity to expand my aerial photography portfolio and focused on mostly top down images. Photographing top down is not easy. The landscapes look completely different than you’re used to. It’s like seeing a whole new world. New ‘paintings’ go by every second and you have to be quick to capture them properly. Rivers, ground textures, valleys... they all

9 Unbelievable Photographs of Ice Caves in Iceland

Ice caves in Iceland are a dream of most landscape photographers. If you've seen photos of them before, then no doubt you will likely want to visit one yourself. Before you enter one though, it's important to know how they are formed, ways in which to stay safe when entering an ice cave, and what kinds of photos you can expect to get when you do take the plunge and head into an ice cave deep within Iceland's Vatnajökull National Park. So without further ado, let's dive into the wonderful world of Iceland's incredible ice caves. See also: 4 Day Northern Lights & Ice C

Travelling to Greenland for Photography

As I write this blog, I am on an Air Greenland flight from Ilulissat to Nuuk and have just been informed by the captain that we are in a holding pattern, as the weather in Nuuk has deteriorated, and we are unable to land. Such is travel in Greenland. Greenland.com currently has an internet campaign running, #GreenlandPioneer, that seeks those traveling to Greenland to post images and stories of their journeys. I would submit that this is a rather accurate portrayal of travels to this amazing country, and that being a Pioneer is part of the reality, and part of the fun. In

Photographing Ice in Iceland

I have found that, in my many journeys to Iceland, photographing the ice tends to drive my passion like no other landscape. The ever-changing colours, shapes, and luminosity of the ice, create a primal force of nature that continually draws me deeper into each scene. The glacial lagoons of the Vatnajökull ice cap- Fjallsárlón and Jökulsárlón are a photographer’s paradise. They are easily accessible, yet because of the kinetic existence of the glacier they are never the same. They are a definite bucket list location for any photographer.

Falling in Love with Iceland

It was a regular day back in June of 2012, I was having some drinks with a couple of my best buddies talking photography. We had always planned a trip to visit Iceland, for one reason or another our plans always had to be pushed back as we initially wanted to go October of 2011. I fell in love with Iceland. Photo by: 'Christian Lim'. See also: Summer Workshops in Iceland After a couple of beers mixed with some hard drinks, I said “You know what, we should just do it.” Book it tonight. The rest was history, we booked an 8 day tour with Iurie Belegurschi, whom I met the

This is Why Everyone Wants to go to Iceland

Iceland is booming. More than 2 million tourists visit Iceland every year. This comes as no surprise. As I am regularly guiding tours in Iceland I have visited the country quite some times over the years and the beauty of the country is simply out of this world. The moment you step out of Reykjavik is the moment you enter some a fantasy movie with beautiful scenery on ever corner. For the people that have not visited Iceland yet, here are a bunch of images that just might convince you :) See also: 9 Best Places for Landscape Photography in Iceland Iceland has an Insane Coastli
