Iceland 2005

In late June and early July 2005 I was privileged to participate in a photographic workshop organised by the Icelandic nature photographer Daniel Bergmann. I had met and worked alongside Daniel during my previous trip to Iceland in 2004 and when he let it be known that he was organising a workshop I didn't take much convincing to sign up. The following are only a small selection of over 1400 images that I captured using Canon EOS 1D MKII and a borrowed 1DsMKII (thanks to Coleman Fung) cameras. Additional images will be uploaded when time allows.

During the 9 days of this my second trip to Iceland we spent most of our time in the south eastern part of the island photographing areas that included the: Kerlingarfjoll mountains, Fjallabak nature reserve, Landmannalaugar, Stadarfjall mountains, HÛl·rjokull glacier, Cape IngÛlfshofdi, and finally the South Fjallabak. We shot in all kinds of weather, although mostly wet, and at all hours of the day, which should go some way to explaining the sometimes strange colouring of the images. Lenses used included: Canon 24mm Tilt Shift, Canon 16-35mm Zoom, Canon 24-70mm Zoom and Canon 70-200mm Zoom.
