Braided Flows – Glacial Rivers From the Air

In the landscape photography community, Iceland is a prime location as there are so many bucket list shots to be made here. Perhaps some of the most sought after photographs, are those taken of the beautiful braided rivers which can only be seen from the sky.

Living Earth – a Geothermal Bird’s Eye View

There are currently no active volcanic eruptions on Iceland but there is still plenty of evidence of the tremendous heat present in the earth beneath it. On Iceland, there are many geothermal areas, which I find incredibly interesting to photograph.

Greenland Photography

Greenland – Discovering Deep Winter in Ilulissat

It finally happened: I travelled to Greenland! A few weeks ago I made an impulsive, last-minute, but very rewarding visit to Ilulissat. My main goal? Photographing the majestic castles of ice floating in the UNESCO Ilulissat icefjord.

2021 – My Photographic Year in Review

After the difficult year 2020 turned into, 2021 came back with a bang for my photography. During 2020, I suffered from what I like to call a "photographic writer's block". I couldn't find sufficient inspiration & energy. I didn't want to go out to photograph and wasn't finding joy in it any longer. Fortunately, 2021 marked a complete turnaround for…

Aurora Borealis Northern Lights Photography Reykjanes Peninsula

Capturing the Aurora Above Reykjanes

The aurora season has finally kicked off in Iceland. While the first northern lights are usually visible from the end of August, we haven’t been particularly lucky with the weather here in Southwest Iceland up until now. That is, until Saturday October 30th, when a CME (coronal mass ejection) was forecasted to hit the Earth’s magnetic field.

Geldingadalsgos – Geldingadalur Eruption in Iceland
