40 Reasons To Visit Iceland With A Drone

251

ADVERTISEMENT

My name is Jakub Polomski, I am a Polish landscape photographer. In July 2015, I travelled to Iceland. During two weeks, I drove 4000 km including the seaside. I used my DSLR camera for landscapes, and drone to capture aerial photographs. Iceland is unique land, however, some locations look really abstract in the bird’s eye view.

All photos in this article were captured by drone with 12Mpix camera. I photographed in following locations.

    Does the drone take the pictures and you edit later, or do you have a visual device on the ground and capture the frames you want?

    Brilliant. I did virtually the same trip (4,000kms) with 2 x DSLRs but didn't one away with anything like these. Superb work. Print a book.

    Amazing views impossible to see without Drones, and compels me to wonder, Why don't we send Drones to Mars?

    Fjallfoss is WRONG.... the waterfall has been called that by mistake but it is Wrong. The name of that waterfall is "Dynjandi".

    A natureza é singela, e nunca agrediu ninguém, muito pelo contrario, a natureza nasceu primeiro que o homem. Por isso o mesmo deve com toda continência respeita-la, pois é o complemento de nossas vidas. Na verdade a natureza nunca precisou de homem nenhum para se manter. O problema é que se ela precisar então os homens não tem nada de recursos a oferece-la e vai acabar vendo a sumindo, se definhando pelas mãos de um ser humano que a deteriorou.!.

    The images under Dimmu Borgir are actually of a place called Hverfjall. Dimmu Borgir is another place.
