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, 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, delicious food, 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 5 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
Accommodation
We will be based at several hotels as we travel along the south coast. On the first and last nights as we work our way from and back towards the airport we will be at the Hotel Vik, a beautiful contemporary styled hotel, minutes from the black sand beach. Followed by a night at the similarly stylish Fosshotel at Jokulsarlon glacial lagoon, close to the glacial lagoon and then two nights at the Brunnholl Hotel, a comfortable hotel ideally situated between Jokulsarlon and Vestrahorn mountain.
