ICELAND

Iceland is the biggest island between North Atlantic and the Arctic Ocean. A paradise for tourists and a great place for landscape and nature photographers from all over the world. The whole island is perfect for photography with forests, mountains, valleys, geysers, rivers, waterfalls, lakes and a range of landscapes to be captured. 

By Claire Nolan

The island is divided into 8 parts: East Iceland, West Iceland, Westfjords, Reykjanes, Reykjavik, Highlandsa and North Iceland. The island lies between Eurasian and American tectonic plates, with the whole island made from volcanic activities of millions of years which provide stunningly beautiful landscapes.

Every year all interested photographers go to this wonderful place to capture photos and videos of Northern Lights.
