Accommodation: Accommodation is on a twin/shared room basis and will be in a combination of clean, comfortable hotels or hostels as we make our way round the island to our working locations.
Level of fitness: There will be relatively little serious walking on the trip but the days are short so we will be photographing early and/or late dependent on the weather and there is a fair bit of driving as we make our way around the island to our planned locations, which means tiredness will accumulate over the course of the trip.

Subarctic Birds
It’s a country that’s not been out of the headlines lately with collapsing banks and erupting volcanoes, but it’s also an amazing place for both landscape and bird photography. The birds will be our prime focus with Lake Myvatn and its specialities such as Harlequin Duck and Slavonian Grebe, Puffin laden cliffs, iceberg filled lagoons teeming with breeding Arctic Terns, Eider Duck and Common Seals; plus extraordinarily approachable breeding waders such as Golden Plover and Red-necked Phalarope and hopefully Red-Throated Diver all high on our target list. On the way we’ll find waterfalls, glaciers and mud pools, just part of the amazing living island that makes up this extraordinary country and all fantastically photogenic as well.
