A visual symphony.

A study in light: Summer’s night at remote Drangaskörð in Strandir, Westfjords of Iceland.

A short video is attached below the stills.

Rajan, these are absolutely amazing! The second image, with its snow-capped mountain peak bathed in pink light against the turquoise blue water, is particularly stunning. The composition is fantastic, and I had to hit the vote button right away.

These are amazing and the video is a nice addition. Do you shoot with the doors off or are you able to capture that level of detail and contrast through the glass windows? When we shot in winter in Alaska from helicopters my images were quite muddy with little contrast or detail.

Gregg, Bob, and Scott - thank you.


Bob: I always shoot with the door taken out from my side of the helicopter.

Great landscape photography.

Just saw snow when I was there last July 2023 aboard a cruise ship.

Beautiful all the way...Nice work.
Wish you would have flown over that house but maybe they wouldn't like that.
Do you ever see any animals of any type around there ?

Bill, thank you.

This area is now abandoned, nobody lives here. The descendants of the original farmers may visit in the summer but that’s about it.

The only land animals you’ll see here are sheep and Arctic foxes.
