Photographing The Golden Puffin Castle in Grimsey

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. It was not our intention, it just happened. We had been waiting for the right conditions so we could retake photos we shot a few years ago. The photos are today used as product photos on a large box of chocolates and a chocolate bar. The photos we shot a few years ago were taken on Nikon D3, Nikon D4s, and now on the Nikon D850. All of them have ended as product photos.
Surrounded by puffins we had a nice evening of landscape photography and we hope you can also enjoy this video where we share the camera settings and give tips about how we approach the scene. At least we had a great time.
