After one week in Artimino we left for our second visit to Rome. We have been there in 2007 and just wanted to have another look at the Eternal City. Things have changed a lot. While in 2007 (we were there at a similar time of the year) there were a lot of visitors, this […]

Tuscany
From Levanto we drove via Carrara and Lucca to Artimino, our next 7 day stay in Tuscany. From there we did day trips to the planned areas. First day of our stay was utilized by the cooking course in which we learned how to make Pasta and Cantucci. Finally, after the whole trip, it was […]
Cinque Terre
We went from home by car down to Como in Italy for a one night stay because travel distance was too much to do it in one go. So, our travel truly started on the next day when we drove to Levanto. The road led us via Milano and Genova down to our first destination. […]
Planning Italy Trip
We will go to Italy in 2016. The whole tour is planned to be done by car. Planned route so far: Route is from hometown to Como (as an interim stop) Cinque Terre (Levanto) Tuscany (Artimino) Rome (with a single day trip to Pompeii) Venezia (Trevisio stay for a single day in Venice) and then back.
Jökulsárlón Panorama
On the day we left towards Ásólfsskáli we stopped a last time at Jökulsárlón. I used the Nikon D4 with Tamron 70-200f2.8 at 200mm for a panorama shot of the scene. Result were 42 portrait-mode pictures out of which 34 were used to create the panorama. I uploaded the picture in nearly full size to allow viewing […]
Iceland Pictures: Höfuðborgarsvæðið
The last region we went was Höfuðborgarsvæðið, the capital region. This is mainly Reykjavík and pictures taken were only in the city. No bird shots in this region but some black & white extracts of some pictures taken.
Iceland Pictures: Suðurland
From Austurland we got to Suðurland (Southern region). Unfortunately we arrived in Vík í Mýrdal at noon time. Bad time for good shots at the beach there and Dyrhólaey. From Ásólfsskáli we went to the places around Golden Circle and Landmannalaugar. No bird shots in this region but some black & white extracts of some pictures taken.
Iceland Pictures: Austurland
One of the most visited regions is Austurland (East region). Especially because of the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon where a good bunch of my pictures were done. We went there four times (and could have gone even more as it is really amazing). Apart of that nice location Svartifoss and some glacier trips were done. Again, the bird shots taken during […]
Iceland Pictures: Norðurland Eystra
Norðurland Eystra (Northeast region) was the fourth region we went. Stayed for 3 days in Mývatn. Although the name could imply a lot of mosquitoes there, and I have doubts that it will be, we were lucky having not seen a lot. Again, the bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added […]
Iceland Pictures: Norðurland Vestra
Norðurland Vestra (Northwest region) was the third region we shortly passed through on the way from Heydalur to Sauðárkrókur which was planned for an interim stay. Again, the bird shots taken during the travel are all in one folder which will get more pictures added throughout the review of the other regions. The same applies to the black & white extracts […]
