Iceland’s South East Coast and Jökulsárlón’s famous Diamond Beach

It had been on my bucket list to visit Iceland for many years. I’d heard about the constantly changing, magnificent volcanic landscapes, mysterious folk legends and seen incredible images by other photographers. I was determined to go as a special treat and was not disappointed.
I discovered my guide, Thoraninn Jonsonn, via recommendation on Facebook. Normally he would take groups, but feeling this would restrict the images I could capture, decided to damn the expenses and hire his expertise in low season. Shooting in January, I was prepared for short shooting times, there being only about 4 hours of daylight each day. It was incredibly windy too, so the right clothing was essential. Thor’s local knowledge was invaluable, allowing us to make the most of the shooting time we had, charging around the country, of-roading across frozen rivers, capturing as much as possible, listening to Icelandic goth bands at full volume as we travelled during dark hours.
The highlight of the trip was incredible Diamond Beach close to Jokulsarlon’s glacier lagoon. A geological miracle, icebergs drop of the glacier and travel down a natural channel to the sea, where they float back onto black volcanic sands. There is nowhere else on earth like it and no words can describe.
