Iceland — landscapes & vistas

Year

2019

In the summer of 2019 I headed out for the motorcycle adventure of a lifetime. The plan was to set out for 7 weeks, 5 of which were spent riding around Iceland, camping, and taking photos. In order to get there, I headed from Kraków to Hirtshals (Denmark) where I took a ferry to the Faroe Islands. 3 days later, another ferry took me to the shore of Iceland where my adventure really began. I was completely alone on this trip.

Over the course of several weeks I have witnessed the beauty and the harshness of this unique volcanic island. From beautiful days and midnight sun to thick mist, heavy downpours and snowfalls. I visited most of the popular destinations and several hidden gems in the remote Highlands.

The most challenging part of the adventure was dealing with the harsh weather: very strong gusts of wind, cold and rain. And the rivers. Especially when crossing them on a heavy, fully loaded motorcycle. There was one day where I crossed over 25 rivers and got stuck in one of them! You can follow my Facebook fan page or my travel blog where I will be sharing more photos and stories from this trip.

Photos taken with Canon 80D and an EF-S 10-18 mm f/4.5-5.6 IS STM, EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM and EF-S 50mm f/1.8 STM.
