Description Few places in the world can compare with the drama of Iceland’s other worldly landscapes in winter.
On this workshop we will be concentrating on the south of the country. An area that is packed with legendary landscapes… glaciers, iceberg filled lagoons, blue ice caves, black sand beaches, cliffs and rock stacks, towering mountains and thundering waterfalls. At this time of year days are short but the low angle of the sun means the light can be golden all day long and the photography doesn’t stop when the sun goes down. At night, if conditions are right, we will be heading out in search of the dancing lights of the Aurora Borealis.
On my workshops, every detail is taken care of from the transport to comfortable private rooms to the stunning locations so you can relax and concentrate on enjoying the photography. I pride myself on providing plenty of personal tuition, so numbers are limited to 7 participants to enable me to spend plenty of time with everyone.
A detailed information sheet will be sent out when you book but if you have any questions please contact me on info@justinminns.co.uk
NB On this tour I will be working with an Icelandic tour operator and using a fully licensed guide/driver in order to comply with Icelandic law but rest assured I will still be running it in the same way I always do so you can expect the same great experience as all of my other workshops!
