FAROE ISLAND

July 18 – 25, 2023

FAROE ISLAND

In Springtime the Faroe Islands start to awaken from their winter slumber and the days begin to get longer. The islands can be quiet and peaceful but as always the weather in the Faroe Islands is hard to call. The weather will most definitely vary a lot. Whether you are in the middle of hail or sunny spells, you will find the untouched moments in nature just brilliant. The ever-changing landscapes are really something to behold and give you a true sense of peace. Spring is welcomed by blooming daffodils and marigolds. Puffins and other migratory birds start to return to the mountain cliffs to build colonies and nests.

ICELAND MIDNIGHT SUN

Midnight Sun: When the Sun Never Sleeps The midnight sun is caused by the tilt of the Earth’s axis towards the sun during summer. This same tilt of the Earth’s axis and the Earth revolving around the sun cause seasons to happen. Photography in the Midnight Sun zone creates some of the most amazing landscape shooting to be found anywhere on the planet. As landscape photographers, we intrinsically love sunrises and sunsets. The problem though is that they are so fleeting, there’s barely any time to photograph one before it’s gone and you’re left in the dark (literally).
