Magic aurora in Iceland. viaggio fotografico islanda
Viaggio fotografico incredibile in Islanda
For me quite simply one of, if not the most stunning places I have visited so far, Vestrahorn.
A huge difference to the last time I was here where you couldn't see the tops of the mountains and it was too rough to get up by the coastal section, today was the total reverse with the dunes being unshootable due to extreme winds howling around and blowing the black sand round everywhere, so the coast was actually a far more sheltered option.
One of my favourites from the mornings shoot at sunrise, not long after I'd fallen and ended up on my backside on the rocks... unhurt but covered in mud and sand..
This shot was a case of getting to a shutter speed that I liked and just waiting for the right time, and the right wave to give me what I was try to achieve.

Full moon over Vestrahorn
View from Stokksnes
Probably my favourite place I have visited in Iceland and an absolute playground for photography, you never quite know what you are going to get here.
We had come for sunrise this day whikle we did get some great light it wasn't a fiery one by any stretch of the imagination, but it really doesn't matter as what may lose in colour is usually more than compensated for in drama and mood.
The dunes here were unshootable this day due to howling winds and it whipping all the sand up everywhere, literally impossible conditions to shoot in, as there was a alot of wind and cloud about I decided to just hunket down somewhere shelterd and try and capture the cloud movement and mood of the scene at the far end where the sea meets the black beach.
Totally different from the shots I have got here previously and a location that leaves you in awe each time you get there.

The rain overnight surprisingly left more water at inner part of Stokksnes beach, making it possible to capture the reflection of the mountains in full.

Following on from yesterdays upload I've been going through my Iceland images, seeing that is where I should be right now..
Really surprised at how many images I've managed to find that hadn't been touched, including this one taken not long after sunrise at Vestrahorn, Stokksnes.
A very different image to the last one, cropping in lot tighter into the mountain, giving a better view of the mountain to the rear often called 'Batman Mountain' with the glowing morning clouds reflecting into the wet sands.
If I can't be there, this is the next best thing at the moment.
