Live the incredible experience of photographing the Northern Lights, one of the most dazzling natural spectacles and also in one of the most dramatic and photogenic landscapes that Iceland has to offer. This exclusive adventure is designed for a small group of people who want to have the opportunity to witness the auroras from different emblematic locations during the new moon (darkest nights of the month. This is why the travel dates), as well as explore majestic waterfalls, lagoons, craters, volcanic sand beaches, Baltic minerals and glaciers. We will travel by private car along the south coast from east to west where you can delight in many Nordic landscapes, with the flexibility to make many stops to take pictures, visit a Viking village, see glacial ice floes and relax in a natural hot springs pool! During this adventure you will be in the company of a professional photographer and full time traveler with whom you can acquire some tips and techniques to get the most out of your camera especially in night photography. (*If you don’t have a camera but you still want to live the experience, you will have the opportunity to pose for some pictures with landscapes from another planet).
About me: I am a graphic designer by profession and a photographer and full time traveller by passion. Therefore my camera has become my personal vehicle that has taken me around the world! And one of my favorite destinations is Iceland so this time I want to share it with my trip mates the beautiful and photogenic landscapes that this country has to offer and specially with the Northern Lights. In case you wonder why Iceland? well, I am very interested about the nature, colors and waterfalls of this country that always make me visit again and again so after a few visits.. I still want more... therefore I look forward to sharing some of my favorite spots with my fellow trip-mates!
The accommodation: During the trip will be staying mostly in cottages or houses in the countryside or small villages where we can have more opportunities to see the Aurora Borealis with less city lights and surrounded by a natural Nordic environment that the country of Iceland has to offer. We will look also for waterfalls or natural formations nearby at night to photograph with the Northern Lights. Keep me posted if you have any questions in the Q&A section!
