p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Car City (in Skagafjörður, Iceland)

Meandering through the countryside in Skagafjörður in North Iceland, one is met with a startling sight: hundreds of cars from all eras scattered on the grass at the foot of an imposing mountain.

Details in my blog post, including a video short at this link.

Just wonderful Rajan! Like coming out a dense forest/desert and seeing an oasis!
And nothing around them! Love the snow still lingering in the mountains.

Your drone image is spectacular!

Your images always amaze me with the sparsity in population outside the cities and lack of structures.
Will flip over to your blog!

WOW buddy...So kool. Those Land Rovers are worth some bucks...Look at the big ole tires on top of one.
It's like a wrecking yard out in the middle of nowhere. Great job.
I love Louis Armstrong and that song.

Do you use your iphone on your drone ?

Thank you, Dan. Rural Icelandic life is a blend of great beauty, charm, and quiet calm (when the wind is not blowing).

Thanks, Bill.

No, I don't use the iPhone on the drone. The drone comes with its own camera system mounted on a gimbal. See attached pic.

An automobile junkyard, an unexpected landscape in Iceland! Excellent captures with your flying camera. Well done video with that iconic melody from the great Louis Armstrong.

Such an unusual place in the middle of nowhere. Nice pictures and the video Rajan! It looks like a drone can be a very useful tool for photography in Iceland, and you mastered yours well. The owner must be very dedicated to his car city to create a collection like this. Thank for posting.

I saw the iphone 14 note on your last pix and thought you used one on all but realize you didn't once I read a little better, just got excited seeing all those cars.
