Photographing The Golden Puffin Castle in Grimsey

Behind the lens October 16, 2021

This nice evening of landscape photography at Borgin in Grimsey, a.k.a The Golden Puffin Castle, turned into a kind of plug for our favorite chocolate in Iceland.

Great day of landscape photography at Gatanöf

Creating a good photo composition in landscape photography is the subject of this video. We had a great time working the scene, trying to create a proper landscape photo. This is how we do practical photography on location. The Gatanöf rock might be the next Instagram photo hit, but it could just as well just be a rock out...
