  • I am just returning from my "Icelandic Winter Adventure" photo workshop that I lead with Thor from "Thor Photography". We had an amazing trip with lots of great light, dramatic conditions and quite a bit of Aurora Borealis.

    Yeah, the same thing can be said in JTree and Death Valley. If you stay by the super iconic spots that you drive up to, its a cluster... but if you walk away about a half-mile its complete blissful solitude. I tend to just wanted off into the wilderness for my own sanity and my own perspective.

    Ahhh Iceland! I know most would cringe looking at those opening scene conditions, but I love it! I think the lack of snow in Australia make me want to experience more and more! That was some incredible light over those snow field though man! Truly beautiful. Out of curiosity, did you try a lav mic to try and reduce wind noise?
    I totally agree that Iceland is getting busier and busier. But on our recent trip there I was surprised how EASY it was to find places completely abandoned and to yourself! There were a few canyons and gorges that Haylie and I didn't see anyone at all day! And for Iceland, with such beautiful depth in the landscapes, was an amazing experience to just be alone. The noise of the birds, winds through valley, running water.... stunning.
    Did you capture any timelapses of the northern lights? If you're like me im sure there is enough normal photos to make a timelapse haha
    Also great job on the pronunciation of those Icelandic names :D

    You are finally getting to the level where I can make a comment. ;) Gorgeous photos man! I am sitting here in my PJs drinking a nice cup of hot tea, watching this psychotic madness thinking.. "I am so glad that other photographers are willing to tough it out in climates I would never be caught dead in so I can see all of God's beautiful creation because I never would see it otherwise!" Extreme cold coupled with extreme winds equals a good CZcams binge for me! How did those Sony batteries work for you in all that cold?
