Iceland in winter is an unbelievable land of light and drama with frozen waterfalls, ice caves, Northern Lights and spectacular landscapes. This very special 12-day workshop will transport you around Ring Road for an unmatched Icelandic photo adventure while improving your photography skills both behind the camera and with processing. Imagine the wonders you will photograph as we travel through the diverse Lake Mývatn region, the remote East Fjords, as well as a wealth of glaciers, volcanoes, hot-spring areas and waterfalls and of course, the Glacier Lagoon. This tour is conducted with Jennifer King and a local esteemed photo-guide, who know the iconic shooting locations (as well as many lesser-known spots) where you can capture unique images of the Icelandic nature far from any crowds. We are also experts in locating and capturing the aurora borealis. Whether you are an amateur photographer merely seeking to improve your skills, or a advanced photographer aspiring to greatness, this tour will be an immeasurable experience, both in what you will learn and in how much your portfolio will expand. Do not miss your chance to photograph frozen waterfalls with dancing Northern Lights of Iceland!
