Iceland Icelandic Highlands Photo Workshops

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.

Review – Why I Love My Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM

For almost four years, I have been a very happy user of the Canon RF 100-500MM F4.5-7.1 L IS USM telephoto lens. To me, it’s an almost perfect lens and because of that, I have used it for roughly 90% of my camera photography since I purchased it.

Review – ATOLL X Tripod Collar

While I was initially intrigued by the original ATOLL Tripod Collar, I ended up not using it because of a few practical limitations I experienced such as it being difficult to use while wearing gloves. So how does the newer, improved ATOLL X Tripod Collar stack up?

Patagonia Travel Log

Capturing The Grand Landscapes Of Torres Del Paine in Patagonia

After returning from the epic expedition to Antarctica, it was time to move onto part two of my three and a half week journey. Because the Antarctica expedition started and ended in Punta Arenas (Chile), we decided to add on Chilean Patagonia for several days and, more specifically, Torres Del Paine National Park.

Aurora Borealis Northern Lights Volcano

Photographing the Aurora Borealis Above an Eruption (Again)

Three years ago, during the 2021 eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcanic system in Iceland, I set out on a mission to try and capture the northern lights above an erupting volcano. I recently attempted to witness this unique & rare combination of natural phenomenons again, which I have dubbed the ‘Holy Grail of Iceland Photography’.
