Arrival at the Faroe Islands. We will pick you up at the airport and drive you to our hotel at Eysturoy (East Island). We spend the evening in the beautiful and intimate fjord that surrounds our cosy hotel.

After dinner we meet for a briefing on our workshop.

We will cross the only bridge over the North Atlantic, from Eysturoy to the Streymoy. Because the channel is so narrow, spectacular eddies form at the base of the bridge when the current runs strong with the tide. This spectacular introduction to the island quickly pales as we explore all the unique nature and vistas of Eysturoy. We start the day from the tallest mountain in the Faroe Islands: The towering Slættaratindur soars 882 metres, yet the summit is easily reached along the eastern ridge. The view is absolutely breathtaking, because you can see all the Faroe Islands from the north of Viðoy to the fringes of Suðuroy in the south – truly a panorama shot. The rest of the day we will spend around Eystury.

After dinner, we open a discussion about the images of the day and the genre of landscape photography.

From the top of Vestmanna Bird Cliffs some 600 metres above sea level we will start shooting during the early morning light, which illuminates the islands of Vágar and Mykines. After lunch, we will spend the rest of the day exploring Streymoy sceneries between the rugged sea stacks and the many grottoes along the coast with their rich textures. Your imagination and the spirit will be filled with amazement at the wonderland that nature has created in this country.

In the evening, the workshop is open for discussion about the images of the day and techniques around composition.

The northern islands consist of six islands. We will explore the six islands over the next three days. We will focus on photographing the overwhelming landscapes during sunrise and sunset. The sceneries consist of a great variation of rock formations, a forest (a very small one), breath-taking mountains and waterfalls.

We will continue the workshop with facts about night photography, ideas and advice on how to create your own photo exhibition and a look into the work of the greatest wildlife photographers.

Mykines is a great haven for unique photography. We will arrive by boat in the morning and spend a day on the cliffs of Mykines Ulmur overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the dramatic rocks in the massive ocean. We will work on photographing the intimate landscape in the stone forest in the valley of Korkadalur, where the summit of 560 meter-tall Knúkur awaits.

We will take off early in the morning for Suðuroy, the southernmost island in the Faroe Islands. Here, we will find magnificent and staggering dramatic landscapes. We will shoot from the Atlantic coastline and search for large and small waterfalls and from cliffs that rise into the sky. We are going to photograph the huge rocks coming out of the sea. It will be truly a day filled with adventure and great opportunities to photograph the stunning sceneries at the Faroe Islands.

In the evening, we will enjoy our farewell dinner.

Return to your home country.
