PHOTO TOUR FAROE ISLANDS

Far out in the Atlantic Ocean, surrounded by nothing but water lies the beautiful and mysterious archipelago of the Faroe Islands. When we try to describe these islands we mostly come to Mighty & Magical, especially when we do so from the point of view of a landscape photographer.

Compared to all the other landscape photography hotspots easily accessible from Europe, these islands are without a doubt still a place where you can find a great location without having to share it with many others. You couldn't ask for a better setting to let your creativity run wild. The Faroe Islands are known for their endless collection of dramatic cliffs, stunning peaks and lakes. Given the relatively small size of this archipelago, we can spontaneously choose which area to visit given the island's fickle weather forecast. You may well experience all four seasons of the year in just a few hours. Sun, rain, snow, wind but always enchantingly light. This is what makes these islands so great for landscape photography, in addition to the epic landscapes.

WHAT DOES SUCH A WEEK IN THE FAROE ISLANDS LOOK LIKE

It goes without saying when we say that the main focus is landscape photography. During this cool trip, we will go on a unique two-day excursion. We take the boat to the beautiful island Suduroy, perhaps the most beautiful island of all. During the boat trip the photogenic moments are already flying around your ears. Many things depend on the fickle weather on the islands. We are bound to encounter rain, but it is precisely this that provides unprecedentedly beautiful light in the valleys. Should it continue to rain endlessly, there is time for some photography and post-processing tips.

The Faroe Islands trip is open to any passionate photographer. We do not have a day to day schedule because we like to be guided by the most beautiful light. However, we do have a list of locations we will visit. Think of places like Surreal Lake Leitisvatn (where a lake seems to flow into the ocean), Gasadalur, Kallur lighthouse, and many more.... The light is constantly changing on the island so an unexpected stop is sure to be among them because we don't want to miss the best moment. Of course, we all bring a dose of sociability and it will be an unforgettable, inspiring and above all enchanting complete trip where there is all room for learning and discovery.
