The Icelandic summer has been rather wet. Rain won't be considered photographers' friend anytime soon but there’s no reason to stop trying. Personally, I think some of my best images are taken on cloudy days that are threatened with rain.
The cool thing about Iceland is that so often you can find dry spots on rainy days that will provide you with excellent photo opportunities.
This is one of the key reasons why you should consider hiring a professional photo guide. You are hiring a local that knows the locations and the weather in Iceland and is, therefore, more likely to present you with good opportunities.
I recently took a lovely couple from Australia on a three-day tour which unfortunately didn’t see much sun at all. But nonetheless, we were able to catch some nice images along the way.
My name is Pétur Þór Ragnarsson. I'm 34 years old, married and together with Ágústa, my wife, we have a 7 year old son. I currently live in Reykjavík and we have no plans of leaving. I am a photographer focusing on landscape photography. I thoroughly enjoy the great outdoors and in my opinion Iceland is possibly one of the best places for landscape photography. With it's lunar like landscapes, epic waterfalls and geysers the possibilities are endless. I offer tailor made photo tours, day tours as well as longer tours. Don’t hesitate to contact me for information if you’re headed to Iceland with your camera.
