A Photographer's View | Landmannalaugar in Iceland - What you Need to know

Landmannalaugar in Iceland is a beautiful landscape photography location and in this video I try my hand at reviewing it. I offer information about the area, what I enjoyed and what I did not enjoy. I talk about what there is to photograph and some of the hiking that is available in Landmannalaugar.

I think it is a good addition to your channel as it allows for the logistical approach of your trips to compliment the artistic aspect of your content. I know Mads Peter Iverson has commented on your channel before and its one aspect that compliments his channel extremely well when he discusses the trip and not just the photography. Your images in this vlog were great to see again and your discussion also is a good reminder that it often involves hard work to get to the point of sharing these images

[@MadsPeterIversen]

scotty4418 this is so good! Now I can focus on the vlogging and photography part when I finally get to Landmannalaugar and just link to this video for any practical questions 😁

[@ChimneySwift11]

[@jmthier]

This was super cool! Not only just for checking this particular location out, but to help us think about other similar plans we might have! Can’t wait to see more of them!

[@slugger88]

Once again, this video is a hit. What you do, probably better than any other KZbin photographer, is make us want to go out and take pictures. Thanks very much for that, Thomas.

[@ginagallagher72]

I love love love this format!! The information provided was perfect! Thank you so much! I look forward to more!!

[@alecmurray4921]

Hi Thomas. I’ve been following you for a month or so and am constantly educated and entertained by your videos. This one is no exception. I was in Iceland 3 years ago but other than a couple of tours stayed in Reykjavik. You’ve made me want to return and get out onto the land. Just getting back into photography after many years away and you’ve helped me with the steep learning curve to get into the digital age. Look forward to whatever you have planned next, but I encourage you to do more of these.

[@MegaDwilkinson]

yes, more of these please Thomas - excellent stuff

[@RS.Outdoors]

Looks an amazing place to stay and that campsite reminds me of the Red Squirrel in Glencoe... Maybe one day I will get the chance to visit.

[@kevins8575]

Great idea. It's very helpful for people to get this kind of information to help plan photo trips. Glad that you included some of your images for inspiration.

[@joao.s.cardoso]

Fantastic review. Love the idea and hope you continue to do these. Cheers!

[@DandradaLtd]

I think this video series would be a hit! Please continue along with your other adventures! Looking forward to more!

[@justinvrba1439]

Very great video Thomas. I did enjoy this type of video. I've been a fan of your work for a few years now. It might be a great addition to your regular videos. It reaches out to so many people, from the person looking to find new places they've never been to or to someone that will never be able to go to these beautiful locations. Thanks for sharing and keep up the great work!

[@spid7223]

Thank you Thomas, this is a great video with loads of information and ideas for Iceland

[@astorm59]

Thank you Thomas. Great idea. Looking forward for next location

[@baileyhicks2699]

[@kawiemer]

Enjoyed it. Thanks for the heads up and for expanding my bucket list.

[@josephfotero]

Thanks, Thomas, for sharing this video of one of the places you like to visit for photos and scenery. Thanks for adding tips about gear, food, when to go and what time of day to shoot. Looks like an awesome place that makes me want to visit Iceland for a couple of weeks.

[@dawngore2059]

Thanks Tom. Amazing review. I’ve never been to Iceland but your videos have encouraged me to add it to my wish list. I’ve been ‘binge watching’ your videos over the last few days and love every one of them 👍🏻

[@johnlewis3002]

Great idea Thomas. Some really helpful information. Look forward to the next one.

[@borisiglar9580]

Very useful video and hopefully one of many that type videos. It definitely come in handy to know not only how you taking photographs, but also the preparation, recommendations, reviews of locations and trips.

[@wyldcanuck]

Great intro, awesome info! Keep these coming with more locations you deem worthy to share!

[@mikeshafer2646]

Love this style of video! We can talk about gear and composition and editing all day, but getting to the right locations is just as important - and often more ambiguous. Looking forward to more locations!

[@ceilihmcgrady4125]

I'll probably never go to Iceland but I really enjoyed this video. Would love to see more of them. 😀

[@peterbiggin7193]

I don't often comment but I think this is an awesome idea for a series. You covered most of the important stuff, gear to take, campsite, accessibility to locations etc. I look forward to more of the same. Thanks Tom

[@jweral]

The specifics around your treks make it more personal, and for those of us that aspire to get to these locations, its exactly what we're looking for. I'll be in Iceland during this years midnight sun (same week as you), and this video may shift our priorities/path. Thank you for all your work, Thomas.

[@AdeelJawed]

Thanks Thomas, I enjoyed this quite a bit! It is great to have a photographer's view on these scenic location and it will be a great help in planning photographic trips for a lot of your audience.

This was a great watch, thanks for making it - I enjoyed your Iceland videos as much as any you've made, so to get the lowdown on the location is super interesting. It will also make planning a future trip that much easier; for that, I thank you!

Great job with the review and the footage given to show the area's you spoke about. Any novice/amateur photographer, such as myself, that is interested in shooting these locations will definitely find this information fantastic.

[@rickhuntsman2764]

I love all of your content! Keep up the great work and continue with all of your awesome videos!

[@roobarb7989]

A great addition to your usual, amazing videos. Keep doing more! I finally got to Landmann 2 years ago, after trying 3 previous times,only to find the roads closed due to late Spring thawing. It's an amazing, safe location. Absolutely stunning for photography ;)

[@jtoselli]

Great to have you here in Argentina! Hope you enjoy our hospitality and the amazing landscapes!!

[@aaronbrown_shoots]

Excellent video Thomas. It really painted the picture of the location and you offered some super useful tips for staying here. I know i'll definitely come back to this video when I go to Iceland one day! PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE!!

[@enjoyoutside6008]

Please go on with this from time to time. It’s great inspiration. Not only explaining how to do and what to buy, it’s more like a „roadbook“ where to go and what to find. Great !!!

[@mattericadalman5391]

Love this idea for your channel! Fantastic information. Thank you for doing this.
