Photo Workshop Report: Highlands of Iceland (with Andrea Livieri)

Not one photo workshop in the Icelandic Highlands is ever the same. While almost all of my photo workshops follow a similar itinerary, each one has its own surprises. Whether it’s a surprise encounter with wildlife, an unexpected gorgeous midnight sun session or unique weather conditions, there is always a twist to it.

New on YouTube: ‘Photographing Glacial Rivers’

Icelandic Highlands Travel Log

Exploring the Icelandic Highlands

Some time ago I planned a trip into the Southern Icelandic Highlands. The plan for the weekend was to explore the areas around Kjölur a bit (one of the F-roads crossing Iceland through the highlands) and afterwards drive around Fjallabak all the way to Eldgjá canyon and back. Ambitious plan but perfectly doable (if you're up for driving some kilometres).
