1. Visit Iceland in Winter To Capture Some Of
The Worlds Most Magnificent Frozen
Scenery Including The Aurora Borealis
Iceland is even ever more spectacular during the winter months
offering an abundance of frozen waterfalls, frozen beaches
covered in icebergs and snow covered volcano’s and mountains
which give the perfect photogenic opportunities for any keen
photographer. The real highlight of the Iceland tour will be the
Aurora Borealis.
Starting at Snaefellsnes on the West Coast of Iceland, the first
three days will be based in Grundarfordur, which is the perfect
place to photograph the whole peninsular, including the famous
Kirkjufell mountain, This magnificent mountain is as mystical and
interesting as its unique wizard hat shape. Arguably the climax of
the tour has to be the Aurora Borealis during the evenings with
clear skies.
The tour then makes its way to Vik, staying near Skogafoss, the
famously vast Icelandic waterfall. Exploring the coastline and cliff
tops, this will give the group access to the prehistoric sea stacks of
Vik and other diverse frozen landscapes. This piece of coastline
offers superb opportunities to capture aurora in top locations.
The final leg of the tour will be based near Jokulsarlon. The tour will
spend a couple of days photographing the iconic Lagoon
iceberg with a truly remarkable landscape, situated just as few
minute from the base. From base the team will enjoy some
spectacular views of the Vatnaiokull Glacier, icebergs in the
lagoon and the black volcanic beach covered in icebergs like
diamonds providing countless photogenic opportunities.
This is the second Iceland tour due to popular demand, led by the
same professional tutor David Clapp. David has been a semi
professional photographer since 2006, going fully professional in
2009 when he began to have his work commissioned setting his

2. path getting his work recognised and featured in the UK
photographic media. He went on to build a career through selling
stock imagery, in which he exclusively shoots for Getty images.
As a trained teacher, David has a great understanding and
compassion for the learning process in which pace and simplicity
is paramount and strengths lie in his adaptability behind the
camera and his ability to react quickly to changing conditions
while on location. David’s passion for architecture and city life,
which extends towards the mountains, means he is as happy
shooting a robust capital city as he is in the wild with diverse
landscapes. Furthermore David has broad knowledge of cameras,
lenses, adapted lenses and known for his skills in photo editing
using top photographic software such as Photoshop. David is
renowned for being a true technical specialist in which to utilise
throughout the seven-day tour.
