Continuing our trip we departed Reykjavk early in the morning and traveled north. We booked 3-nights in Grundarfjörur, the ideal starting point from which to tour the Snaefellsnes Peninsula… 3 a.m. due to the possibility of aurora activity, we drove 10 minutes to Kirkjufell to try our luck. Despite the cloud cover, I took out my wide-angle lens and enjoyed the peaceful night sky and the sight of dawn.

Over the past few years, coinciding with the rise of drone photography, we have been bombarded with images from the magical landscapes of Iceland. A place of harsh conditions, where fire and ice truly meet as volcanic eruptions spray lava next to some Europe’s largest glaciers. But how accessible is it? how much does it cost? and can you do it on your own?

I’ve been using this for a few months now and thus far I’m extremely impressed. My very first trip was up to Broome, Western Australia. Honestly, I could not have picked a better place to test out its capabilities!
