On the day we left towards Ásólfsskáli we stopped a last time at Jökulsárlón. I used the Nikon D4 with Tamron 70-200f2.8 at 200mm for a panorama shot of the scene. Result were 42 portrait-mode pictures out of which 34 were used to create the panorama. I uploaded the picture in nearly full size to allow viewing […]

Iceland travel 2015
Iceland statistics
The whole traveling distance I tracked with my Garmin was 5490km. Using the 2 cameras I had with me I did 4549 pictures. Main lens on the D800 was the Sigma 24-105f4 Art. With the D4 I used nearly all lenses except the Sigma Zoom. Most pictures of the Birds were shot with the D4. The EV […]
Iceland Pictures: Höfuðborgarsvæðið
The last region we went was Höfuðborgarsvæðið, the capital region. This is mainly Reykjavík and pictures taken were only in the city. No bird shots in this region but some black & white extracts of some pictures taken.
Iceland Pictures: Suðurland
From Austurland we got to Suðurland (Southern region). Unfortunately we arrived in Vík í Mýrdal at noon time. Bad time for good shots at the beach there and Dyrhólaey. From Ásólfsskáli we went to the places around Golden Circle and Landmannalaugar. No bird shots in this region but some black & white extracts of some pictures taken.
Iceland Pictures: Austurland
One of the most visited regions is Austurland (East region). Especially because of the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon where a good bunch of my pictures were done. We went there four times (and could have gone even more as it is really amazing). Apart of that nice location Svartifoss and some glacier trips were done. Again, the bird shots taken during […]
Iceland Pictures: Norðurland Eystra
Norðurland Eystra (Northeast region) was the fourth region we went. Stayed for 3 days in Mývatn. Although the name could imply a lot of mosquitoes there, and I have doubts that it will be, we were lucky having not seen a lot. Again, the bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added […]
Iceland Pictures: Norðurland Vestra
Norðurland Vestra (Northwest region) was the third region we shortly passed through on the way from Heydalur to Sauðárkrókur which was planned for an interim stay. Again, the bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added throughout the review of the other regions. The same applies to the black & white extracts […]
Iceland Pictures: Vestfirðir
The second region we passed through was Vestfirðir (Westfjords). The picture below will forward to the SmugMug folder. Again, the bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added throughout the review of the other regions. The same applies to the black & white extracts of some pictures taken.
Iceland Pictures: Vesturland
First set of pictures have been reviewed and reworked. I will organize the sets by Iceland regions. The first we travelled was Vesturland (Western Region). The picture below will forward to the SmugMug folder. The bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added throughout the review of the […]
Day 17: The most northern capital of the world
From Asólfsskáli we’re going for our last stop to Reykjavík. The trip is via Þingvellir. Tomorrow we will spend a full day in Reykjavík before leaving early morning the day after. Left side is the European tectonic plate and right side is the one of North America. Only a couple of pictures in this post which closes the travelblog for […]
