Maybe The Best Photography Guide To Iceland?

I’ve always enjoyed videos on landscape photography. And after several trips to the land of ice and fire during 2015 and 2016 I came up with this concept. I basically wanted to make some videos I wanted to see myself, which are informative and inspiring. Basically the best video guide to landscape photography in Iceland. There’s a lot of photography vlogs out there and some are better than others! I wanted to cut to the bone and skip the boring parts. I don’t care about what you eat, that you left your camera bag on a hillside or how hard it is to get up in the morning. I want to show yo

Mt. Kirkjufell as a photography location

Reykjanestá as a photo destination.

Reykjanestá is located on the south-western tip of the Reykjanes Peninsula, close to Keflavík airport and the Blue lagoon. It’s fairly easy to find by following the signs. You have to drive through an area with a geothermal power plant, which as a bonus has some cool compositions if you want to photograph pipelines and steam. Furthermore there’s a few rather large hotspots, where you can see boiling mud and steam fiss out of the ground. On your way, you pass a lighthouse and you know you’ve arrived when there’s a gravel parking lot with a human-sized bird statue. Reykjanestá is rich on bird
