    From Zürich to the Faroe Islands

    2023年5月13日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 10 °C

    It was an early morning start for me as I made my way to the airport in Zurich to begin my journey to the Faroe Islands for a long-awaited photography workshop. I was filled with excitement and anticipation, ready to learn new skills and capture stunning images of this breathtaking destination.

    As I arrived at the airport, I was greeted by my photography companion Michael, who had also been eagerly awaiting this trip. We checked in our bags and boarded our first flight to Amsterdam, where we had a brief stopover before continuing on to Billund.

    The journey was fairly complicated, with multiple flights and stopovers, but the stunning views from the airplane windows made it all worth it. As we flew over the rugged landscapes of Denmark and the Faroe Islands, I couldn't wait to step foot on the islands and begin exploring.

    As soon as we landed on the Faroe Islands, Michael and I were greeted with a thick fog that enveloped everything around us. It was a bit disappointing, but we were determined to make the most of our trip and explore this fascinating place    もっと詳しく

    From the airport to Tórshavn

    2023年5月13日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 10 °C

    Our first stop was the village of Gásadalur, which is famous for its picturesque waterfall, Múlafossur. We had seen pictures of the waterfall online, but nothing could have prepared us for the breathtaking beauty of the real thing. The waterfall tumbled down a sheer cliff and dropped into the sea below, surrounded by mist and fog.

    As we headed back to our hotel, I felt grateful for the opportunity to explore this beautiful place. Despite the challenging weather conditions, we had already taken some incredible photos, and we knew that there was so much more to see and capture during the rest of our trip. I fell asleep that night, excited for what the next day would bring.    もっと詳しく

    Lake Toftavatn

    2023年5月14日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 8 °C

    On our second day in the Faroe Islands, we woke up early and headed out to explore more of the stunning landscape. Our destination was Toftavatn, a small lake nestled in the hills just outside of Tórshavn.

    The drive to the lake was stunning, with breathtaking views of the rugged coastline and rolling green hills. When we arrived, we were greeted by a herd of curious sheep, who seemed just as interested in us as we were in them.

    We spent the morning exploring the area around the lake, taking photos of the stunning views and the various shades of green that surrounded us. The weather was typically unpredictable, with sun, wind, and rain all making appearances throughout the morning.

    As we were taking photos, one of the sheep suddenly charged towards us, bleating loudly. We quickly realized that it was best to give the sheep some space and moved away to a safe distance.

    After a few hours at Toftavatn, we headed back towards Tórshavn. We decided to take the undersea tunnel back to the hotel, which was a unique experience in and of itself. The tunnel connects the island of Streymoy with the island of Eysturoy and is the second-longest underwater tunnel in the world.

    We arrived back at the hotel in the early afternoon, feeling tired but exhilarated from our morning adventure.    もっと詳しく

    Múlafossur Waterfall

    2023年5月14日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 7 °C

    In the afternoon, we met up with our photography tour group and the guides gave us a briefing about the upcoming days. We were excited to learn that we would be shooting sunsets at 22:30 and sunrises at 4:00, which meant that we would be getting very little sleep during our time in the Faroe Islands. But as photographers, we knew that this was all part of the job.

    After dinner, we headed back out to the Múlafossur Waterfall, hoping to capture the stunning scenery in the perfect light. We were not disappointed - the light was incredible, and we were able to capture some truly breathtaking shots of the waterfall.

    As we were shooting, we also had the opportunity to see and photograph some puffins, which are known for their cute and quirky appearance. It was a real highlight of our trip so far to see these beautiful birds up close.

    Eventually, close to midnight, we reluctantly headed back to the hotel for a short night's sleep. We knew that we would need to be up early the next morning to capture the sunrise, but we were all still buzzing with excitement from the incredible sunset shoot we had just experienced.    もっと詳しく

    Exploring Tórshavn

    2023年5月15日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 9 °C

    After our lunch at local restaurant, we set out to explore the capital city of Tórshavn in the afternoon. We strolled through the charming old town, where narrow alleys lined with colorful houses led us on a journey through history. The traditional turf-roofed buildings and cobblestone streets added to the quaint atmosphere of the area.

    As we wandered, we stumbled upon hidden parks and green spaces tucked away between the buildings. The city had a peaceful ambiance, and we took our time to appreciate the serenity and natural beauty surrounding us.

    Feeling the need for a little break, we decided to stop at a cute coffee shop we discovered along the way. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee filled the air as we entered. The cozy interior and friendly baristas made it the perfect spot to relax and recharge.

    After receiving some valuable photography lessons on composition from our guide David, we were eager to put our newfound knowledge into practice. Excitement filled the air as we ventured out with our cameras, ready to capture stunning images of the Faroe Islands' landscapes.

    However, nature had other plans for us that evening. The rain began to pour, making it impossible to take the sunset shots we had envisioned. Undeterred by the weather, we decided to embrace the circumstances and focus on capturing the beauty of the rainy, windy, and cold conditions.

    We braced ourselves against the elements, adjusting our camera settings to capture the essence of the rainy atmosphere. The wind whipped around us, challenging our ability to keep the camera steady. Water droplets clung to our lenses, adding a dreamy effect to the images we were able to capture.

    While it wasn't the most comfortable or ideal shooting experience, we found solace in knowing that capturing the raw and untamed elements of the Faroe Islands would result in unique and memorable photographs.    もっと詳しく

It seemed that the weather had defied expectations, and we couldn't help but feel a tinge of regret for missing the sunrise. It was a reminder that nature's beauty often unfolds in unexpected ways.

    Undeterred, we quickly prepared ourselves and set off for our first destination of the day - Fossá waterfall. The excitement of being able to capture the majestic cascade of water with our cameras and drone outweighed any lingering disappointment.

    Arriving at Fossá waterfall, we marveled at its sheer grandeur. The water thundered down from a great height, creating a mesmerizing spectacle. It was a sight to behold, and we couldn't wait to capture it from different angles and perspectives.

    As the drone took flight, I was able to capture breathtaking aerial footage, revealing the full scale and beauty of Fossá waterfall. The cascading water, surrounded by lush greenery, looked even more magnificent from above. The drone allowed me to capture the raw power and natural wonder of Fossá waterfall in ways that traditional photography couldn't.    もっと詳しく

    Our next destination took us to the stunning Tjørnuvík beach, a place of natural beauty and raw power. As we arrived, we were immediately captivated by the sight of waves crashing against the rocky shore, sending sprays of water into the air.

    We made our way along the sandy beach, feeling the cool sea breeze on our faces. The sound of the waves was both soothing and invigorating, as they relentlessly pounded against the rugged cliffs that framed the beach.

    We explored the village, admiring the traditional turf-roofed houses and the small chapel that stood as a testament to the village's history and heritage. The surrounding hills and meadows were dotted with sheep, peacefully grazing and adding a touch of serenity to the scene.

    Despite the stunning surroundings, the wind and cold temperatures began to take their toll on us. The exposed location of Saksun made it particularly susceptible to the chilly weather. Nevertheless, we braved the elements, determined to capture the essence of this unique village.

    Mykines - Puffin Island

    2023年5月17日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ 🌬 9 °C

    Today, our journey took us to the renowned island of Mykines, often referred to as Puffin Island due to its abundant population of these charming seabirds. However, unlike the smooth boat ride we had enjoyed yesterday, today's voyage was a different story. The winds were fierce, and the waves crashed against the boat, challenging our journey.
    Despite the challenging conditions, we were determined to reach the island. The anticipation of seeing the puffins up close and capturing their playful antics through our lenses fueled our determination. With each wave that rocked the boat, we held on tightly, knowing that the reward would be worth the bumpy ride.
    Arriving on Mykines, we were greeted by a scene teeming with puffins. The little birds dotted the cliffs and grassy slopes, their colorful beaks contrasting against the backdrop of the dramatic coastline. However, the weather had other plans for us. Rain poured down relentlessly, and the wind howled, creating a difficult environment for photography.
    Undeterred, we donned our trusty waterproof gear and ventured out in search of the perfect shot. It was a challenging task, as the elements seemed to conspire against us. Raindrops pelted our cameras, and the gusts of wind made it difficult to steady our hands. The puffins, aware of the inclement weather, sought shelter in their burrows, making it harder to capture their delightful presence.
    Realizing that the weather wasn't going to relent anytime soon, we decided to take a break and seek refuge in a cozy coffee shop. As we warmed ourselves with hot drinks and indulged in local cake, we watched the rain batter against the windows, hoping for a change in the weather.
    Miraculously, the rain subsided, although heavy fog hung in the air. Embracing this window of opportunity, we ventured back outside. The ethereal atmosphere created by the fog added a sense of mystery to the landscape. And there they were, the puffins, emerging from their hiding spots, seemingly unaffected by the fog and mist.
    With renewed energy and determination, we carefully maneuvered through the damp terrain, capturing shots of puffins perched on rocky ledges and diving into the sea for their catch. The fog lent an air of enchantment to the scene, allowing us to capture unique and atmospheric photographs.
    As the day drew to a close, we reluctantly made our way back to the boat, prepared for another adventurous journey through the stormy seas. The waves crashed against the vessel, tossing it from side to side. It was a thrilling and somewhat nerve-wracking experience, but we held onto the memory of the remarkable puffins we had encountered, their resilience echoing the spirit of these islands.
    Arriving back at the hotel, weary but content, we reflected on the day's events. Despite the challenging weather, we had managed to capture the essence of Mykines and its beloved puffins. It was a reminder that nature doesn't always adhere to our plans, but it rewards us with unexpected moments of beauty and resilience.    もっと詳しく

Our guide, recognizing the opportunity to enhance our skills, provided us with a lesson on transforming our raw captures into stunning works of art.

    Equipped with newfound knowledge and a renewed enthusiasm, we eagerly awaited a break in the weather.

    With every step, the anticipation grew, and our determination carried us forward. The winds whipped around us, making it difficult to maintain our balance, but we pressed on. The promise of an incredible vista awaited us at the summit, urging us to persevere.

    And then, we reached the top. The panoramic view that unfolded before our eyes was nothing short of awe-inspiring. The rolling hills, dramatic cliffs, and expansive sea painted a breathtaking canvas.

    With cameras in hand, we captured the essence of Klakkur. Each click of the shutter froze a moment in time, preserving the grandeur and drama of the landscape. The wind continued to buffet us, serving as a reminder of the untamed nature of the Faroe Islands, but we embraced it, knowing that it added a touch of authenticity to our photographs.

    As the rainclouds began to gather once again, threatening to dampen our spirits, we made the wise decision to descend from the peak. The journey back to the hotel was accompanied by the pitter-patter of raindrops, a familiar melody that seemed to follow us throughout our time in the Faroe.    もっと詳しく

    On our final day with the group, the familiar sound of rain greeted us once again. Undeterred by the weather, we gathered for breakfast and prepared for one last adventure together. Our destination: the Slave Cliff, also known as Illusionen Lake, a place renowned for its spectacular beauty.

    A one-hour hike led us through the misty landscapes, the raindrops adding a rhythmic soundtrack to our journey. As we trekked closer to our destination, anticipation grew, fueled by the stories we had heard of the stunning cliffs and the mystical illusion of the floating lake.

    With our photography workshop coming to a close, we embarked on a short drive to our final stop before returning to the hotel – Trollkonufingur, also known as the Witches Finger. This unique rock formation, jutting out from the coastline, held an air of mystique and intrigue.

    As we arrived at the site, we marveled at the sight before us. The Witches Finger stood tall, its weathered surface telling stories of ancient legends and folklore. The waves crashed against the rugged cliffs, adding a dramatic backdrop to the scene.

    Kallur Lighthouse

    2023年5月20日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C

    Once we bid farewell to our tour group and guides, Michael and I embarked on the next chapter of our Faroe Islands adventure. We hopped into our rental car and made our way to Klaksvik, a picturesque town located on the island of Borðoy. There, we eagerly boarded the ferry that would transport us to the island of Kalsoy, known for its dramatic landscapes and charming villages.

    As the ferry glided across the shimmering waters, we couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement for what lay ahead.

    Upon arriving in Kalsoy, we set off on the narrow winding roads, relishing the freedom of exploring at our own pace. Our destination was the small village of Trøllanes, tucked away on the northernmost tip of the island. The drive itself was an adventure, with breathtaking views at every turn and sheep dotting the emerald-green hillsides.

    After a short hike, our anticipation peaked as we arrived at our ultimate destination – the Kallur Lighthouse. Perched precariously on the edge of towering cliffs, it stood as a sentinel, guarding the rugged coastline and offering unobstructed panoramic views of the surrounding fjords and mountains.

    But there was more to this location than meets the eye. As we explored the area, we stumbled upon the "grave" of James Bond, a nod to the filming of the movie "No Time to Die" on the Faroe Islands.

    With cameras in hand, we immersed ourselves in the enchanting landscape, capturing the essence of Kalsoy's beauty. The jagged cliffs and the dramatic skies created a visual symphony that spoke to the untamed spirit of the Faroe Islands.    もっと詳しく

    Mikladalur

    2023年5月20日, フェロー諸島 ⋅ ☁️ 10 °C

    Before heading back to the ferry terminal, we found ourselves in the charming village of Mikladalur, a place steeped in history and dotted with colorful houses.

    One particular attraction caught our attention—the iconic statue of the Seal Woman. This sculpture, crafted by artist Hans Pauli Olsen, depicted a mythical creature from Faroese folklore. The statue stood majestically on the shores of Mikladalur, gazing out at the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean.

    As we strolled through the village, we couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia and appreciation for the simplicity and authenticity of Faroese life. The tranquil atmosphere and the genuine warmth of the locals resonated deeply within us.

    Eventually, it was time to make our way back to the ferry terminal. However, upon arrival, we realized that the limited capacity of the ferry meant we were unable to board the next scheduled departure. Instead, we found ourselves with an unexpected hour-long wait.

    Rather than letting this delay dampen our spirits, we saw it as an opportunity to reflect on our journey and savor the memories we had created. I opened my travel journal, eager to capture the vivid moments and emotions that had unfolded throughout our time on the Faroe Islands.    もっと詳しく

    Undeterred, we embraced the moody atmosphere and continued our quest to document the beauty of this remarkable land. Though the sunset eluded us, we seized the opportunity to capture the unique charm of the Faroe Islands under cloudy skies. The soft, diffused light added a touch of mystery and etherealness to our photographs.
