This last week was quite amazing to get out of the country and reflect on how lucky I am to have such a dream job. It's a dream job that lends to dreaming and doing. I've dreamed of going to Iceland for a few years now. I've seen many amazing images from there and heard so many amazing things. What's great about being a photographer is having the availability and time to do the things that I love to do, as in travel and take photos. Great for turning vacation trips into business trips.
Iceland is one of the most beautiful countries I've been to. It's so bizarre from the lava rocks to the icebergs.

I definitely recommend taking a trip there. It's much more feasible to go since their economy crashed it was a bit more feasible to make happen. Prices are pretty comparable to New York cost of living. Gas was a bit out of control at about $5.85/gallon but that's normal for Europe. Before the economy crashed, it cost 2.5 times more than it does now. Icelantic people are super nice and friendly as well.
As always, your images are incredible. It looks like an amazing country.
Truly amazing shots!

Unreal photographs. I’ve had my heart set on going to Iceland for years. Ever since I did a design project of Icelandic travel in college, I fell in love. It’s really great to see your take on the country through your images. I guess I will have to do as you say, dream and do!
Beautiful scenery! Stunning photographs! Did you shoot any film on this trip? Or did the DSLR dominate?
Your awesome, warm, photo-journ style does this country justice. Such a great place.
