ICELAND - RELAXING and EPIC 4K DRONE FLIGHT

Sit back and relax to this epic and soothing 4K video showing off one of the most inspiring landscapes in the world. Iceland looks like a fantasy landscape where dragons are born! That country surely has the most otherworldly landscape in the world. In this video, I travel and fly my DJI Mavic 2 Pro drone through the highlands of Iceland and it shows exactly why Iceland is so special to many people. I spend six days in the highlands of Iceland and my drone was one of my favorite tools to capture this fantasy landscape.

[@imogenthornfield]

My dad started watching this and I’m in LOVE! The views are beautiful and the music is so relaxing and fitting

[@isabelladavis1363]

Looks so abstract and uninhabited.,probably only a few of the endless reasons people find Iceland so captivating ...so untouched by man ...the second time now I’ve seen that incredible RED crater with the black lines running vertically and the prominent yellow line surrounding the green lake....STUNNING....visually perfect and with the ethereal music to help carry us away once more Mads with your high in the sky views... the human element being in the landscape scene to help us get a true perspective of just how immense the landscape truly is....loved the journey...

[@herbmailey2779]

Absolutely stunning just stunning! This is the simply best Landscape footage that I have ever seen, anywhere. This is good enough for BBC Planet Earth, Discovery Channel or Nat geo. Wow!!!!!!!

[@juanarroyo5324]

This is STUNNING !!!!!! the drone footage is epic the music.. the landscape is magical ..Iceland is increadibly magical ..this is one of the best drone footage of Iceland ive ever seing!!!!!!!!! what a place hopefully i can visit someday ,, thanks for this masterpeace !!!!!!!!!

[@deyelaw4809]

I spent two weeks driving the ring road in October last year. There is certainly something about the landscape that calls me to go back, I miss it. Thank you for this wonderful video it fills me with so many memories of this hauntingly beautiful place.

[@olaflindner3955]

There is no better way to present this location. Perfect music and cut - simply great and epic! Thanks for sharing it with us!

[@thejusvalsan9989]

WOW.... :) Thanks for sharing these awesome & precious memories . Your videos are really, really good. The visualisation & composition, the way you present , selection & use of background music are really good. Please keep sharing :)

[@namchebarwa1]

What Mads does on his holiday...... who can top this!!

[@marilynrichards979]

Breathtaking video. What an awesome world we live in. Thank you for sharing so much of it with us. Your music selection is so fitting and captivating. I've had the pleasure of binge watching everything and really love your work. This production is jaw dropping and calming.Thank you again.

[@peterjay274]

Magnificent . . . the country and the videography.

[@jimschmidt7303]

EPIC! AMAZING! INCREDIBLE! AWE INSPIRING! I am running out of adjectives to describe this video! Mads, YOU ARE THE BAR TO BE MEASURED AGAINST!

[@maxmillion4216]

This is one of your best videos to date Mads. you must have sent hours working out the music, it sinks perfectly with the video transitions and the color grading was beautiful. I don’t think I’ve ever seen that color of green before. 👏👏

[@chrisstark8136]

Wow!!! What can I say other than please take me there, it looks fantastic. If anyone is thinking of going to Iceland but is unsure this will convince them to go, hell if you’re hell bent on not going to Iceland this will convince you to go, simply EPIC!!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Haha, thanks a lot 😁

[@markwayne8502]

Iceland....like no other place on earth. Absolute stunning beauty. Thank you for this magnificent tribute.

[@charlottem2021]

I know if I was a dragon, I'd totally want to fly around there. Simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing your artistry & talent with us!

[@wieland74]

time for dreaming - iceland from above is simply breathtaking!

[@fototripper]

My god Mads that is the best footage of Iceland I've seen. I've resisted visiting Iceland because it's so overdone but clearly I now need to go... and buy another drone!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot, Gavin! Iceland is yet unexplored. I skipped so many places...

[@costiniucmircea]

Congratulations for the realisation

[@christeeny99]

Breathtaking!!! Your images share just pure beauty of our world. Its too bad not everyone can see things the way you do. Thank you for sharing

[@rsdabell]

Unbelievably.....AWESOME!!!

[@jamidavis8043]

This wonderful video is a treat for the eyes and ears. Thanks for putting it together.

[@GRTObservatory]

what an epic combination of video and music. getting goosebumps on the cut to the rainbow waterfall. really stunning work!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

That's the best compliment! 😁🙏

[@cameroneaston3724]

Truly inspirational Mads. Beautiful place and great music to go with it.

[@villageblunder4787]

Iceland in February is amazingy green! The Tourist office should really get the name changed.

[@cookfred281051]

Your videos are as amazing as your photographs. Simply beautiful.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much, Fred! I always appreciate the kind words from you :)

[@steveplatt58]

What a beautiful video. It truly is a magical place!

[@sylvielalanne4468]

Epic is the word. I just come back from my first trip to Iceland and i can tell i will be back soon. Thanks for this beautifull video.❤️

[@zeppelin.1874_]

Wonderful Iceland! 😍 🥰

[@MHLandscape]

Absolutely magical, beautiful footage and music in perfect harmony, a great start to my Sunday morning! Thank you!

[@davidsweet8837]

Mads this is the best drone show I have ever seen. It is really the best tool to see this part of Iceland. The Mavic 2 really opens up a completely new world for landscape photography. I have one myself and I really get a completely new look of the landscape from the sky than a tripod. Good Work!!

[@philipzivnuska7321]

Terrific Mads. Thank you for doing this. Spectacular. My life is richer for you having done this. Phil

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Very happy to hear that! 🙏

[@lydiamercurio2467]

OUAHHHHH... je viens de passer 1 semaine à préparer notre voyage en Islande grâce à toutes tes videos.... elles sont extraordinaires... on ne verra surement pas tout, mais tu nous a donner du rêve !!! merci merci merci. les videos et les explications sont géniales . la musique est sublime ... je suis fan de ta musique de présentation. THANK YOU

[@mervynsoon9624]

Awesome drone footage!! Magical and surreal!

[@Bringisen]

[@JosephOlar]

[@Souljacker7]

Woah. I've been watching the whole thing since yesterday. Watch a journey. Mine starts by the end of march!

[@diderdesiderio3111]

Sublime, juste sublime!!!

[@jerryhutchinson2543]

Inspiring and very informative with great images that show how your tips work in practice

[@Vetax]

It's not very often that I can say that a video has sent shivers down my spine and made every hair on my body stand up on end, but this did from the first second until the last. Absolutely awe-inspiring and beyond beautiful. Thank you for sharing!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you for such kind words! That's the best feeling! :)

[@dronature]

Absolutely amazing 😉

[@ajfototravel5343]

Absolutely stunning Mads. There is no other place like Iceland. I have plans to return in November and watching your Iceland series has certainly opened my eyes to new and beautiful scenes to photograph.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You're welcome, Joel! :)

[@michaels7889]

Your videos are truly inspiring Mads Peter and the images you present have great geometry. Though lyrical videos like this are absorbingly beautiful I particularly enjoy your discussions of topics/subjects and your approach. They confirm in many ways my own ways and extend those when things get a bit stale. All are presented quietly, no personal histrionics like so much on KZbin. Very professional and charismatic in the proper sense. If this sounds a bit paronising that is far from my intentions. I thoroughly enjoy what you do.

[@dannynash5713]

Spectacular!

[@karenrobinson590]

Stunning, breathtakingly beautiful, spiritually uplifting, humbling and thank you for sharing with the world. A great reminder of how we must respect, treasure, value this earthly world with all living creatures. Can’t say enough but again express my personal appreciation to you for producing and sharing such a visual masterpiece…sincerely Karen Robinson

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Karen!

[@nicksjjackson]

Oooof!!! Just incredible. Mouthwatering landscape. Thank you!

[@NiklasKrog]

Outofwordly. I loved it. Thanks.

[@sergioc.p.7845]

I'm in love with Iceland. The most beautiful place I ever seen. I'll come back again. Sure! Thanx for this video Mads!

[@NightHawk59]

Never saw Iceland like that before! Beautiful.

[@FCAMINS]

Congratulations is a very spectacular video, the plane changes with the music is fantastic, it makes me want to buy a drone and practice, this video is very relaxing. I look forward to the next with much interest.

[@jakobschneeberger3965]

Congratulations! Fantastic video. Many thanks. 😘😘😘

[@doublebogey6799]

Mads outstanding video....enjoy watching your other videos and all of your technical advice...thank you for sharing your knowledge.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

You're welcome and thanks a lot! :)

[@mantass7094]

Just amazing you are very good photographer. Lovely to watch all your videos thanks...

Beautiful landscapes and amazingly videography by amazing person 😊😊 sabih from Pakistan

So beautiful, absolutely unreal. And endless of compositions, thank you Mads for sharing this well made video as well as making Iceland my number one destination for landscape photography!

[@nqnmaca]

Absolutely awesome!!

[@Matt__just_a_guy]

Mads you have such an unbelievable talent for video.. as well as photo

[@zigatretjak75]

Marvelous

[@thomasv5705]

this is wonderfull! best 18minutes I had in a long time :)

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Wow, thank you very much!

[@markjaque3808]

Beautiful as always Mads

[@josephcole3187]

Fantastic work Mads thanks for sharing!!!

[@stevebennettphotography]

This is one of the reasons I bought a drone. Unfortunately this kind of skill and quality didn’t come in the box 🙄. Lovely work Mads👏👏👏

[@wicamulia]

The beauty of Iceland is never ending story ..... good job Mads ... Love from Indonesia

[@briansmith8507]

Very cinematic and lovely, had to make sure I wasn’t on Kraig Adam’s channel for a minute!

[@JaypeaFoto]

Wow, what a lovely way to start my morning. I always start with a cup of coffee and your videos. Extra nice today as I upgraded from my 7 year old iPad to a new one. I thought your videos and photos to be stunning before. What a difference the new iPad make. I knew that each monitor/screen show a different view as you have spoken about in previous videos. It’s too bad that all monitors/screens were the same as the one we process our stuff on. Your work is extra stunning now. Thanks for sharing.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you ever so much and yes, a good screen makes a massive difference :)

[@juancarlosroman4545]

Thanks, beautiful film 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👌🏼

[@nathangreen7312]

This was epic to watch. How anyone has given it a thumbs down is incredible. Great video. Can totally imagine dragons flying around there

[@MadsPeterIversen]

I guess haters will be haters, but this is also a bit out of the ordinary for my channel. People usually don't react well to that ;)

[@nathangreen7312]

@@MadsPeterIversen yeah that's true. Was awesome to watch. Hate to think how much work has gone into make such an epic video. Well done

[@Professor_Internet_PhD]

The only downside to this epic footage is the realization that you basically need a drone to get some unique angles or truly epic shots that show these insane vistas in their full glory, which is often impossible from the ground, unless there is a mountain around to provide that elevation in the right spot...

[@tonicanabate6232]

Beautiful

[@paulus0109]

What an amazing country. Thnx for the awesome video Mads.

[@neilthacker2069]

Truly stunning...epic landscape cinematography,superb editing and excellent choice of accompanying musical score...loved every second of it!

[@Hirsutechin]

I've always enjoyed your drone footage Mads, no exception this time either! Would love to see these places some day, especially that ridge walk in sight of "Mt Doom."

[@papapatriot]

At the 5:56 mark was breath taking!

[@alexcarrillo1]

Super amazing footage, editing and music.

[@stevemarson9665]

awe inspiring.

[@robertstephens1868]

What a unique spectacular landscape. I enjoyed every minute.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so much, Robert!

[@JohnPaul-ii]

Simply stunning scenery Mads. Thanks for sharing again.

[@relax-max]

Magnifique !

[@fatalbert4445]

No introduction needed!! Just Majesty and Grandeur!!! Great shots and footage. You must have researched the Highlands to death before you went!! Brilliant!!!!

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you so very much!

[@RazzAU]

Truly awesome and inspiring. I’m just returning from Iceland after a photo tour and thought it would be a great adventure to return in the summer and loop around in a campervan. Your trekking out across a open plains between the volcanoes is amazing. Congratulations on a very original video. I hope you got lots of lovely photographs. Perhaps you could make a follow-up video on your equipment, the drone, and how you planned your trip. (Just noticed your equipment list that you used a Mavic Pro. Thanks.)

[@mattijaffe8881]

Mads, u have inspired me to visit places in Iceland that I would have never thought of. and they became splendid memories. this cinematic beauty of of Iceland that u have just released is, again, inspirational indeed. bravo.

[@nunoserambeque9239]

Epic. Amazing. To me your best video. 👍From Portugal

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thanks a lot! However, I can't burn this amount of footage in one video normally ;)

[@petertym7816]

Beautiful video Mads!

[@brandigonwa7848]

total EPIC!!! watch it like 3 times. Stunning job as alway thanks.

[@alexmackay7454]

I love Iceland!

[@grahamhunneman3503]

Friggin awesome piece of work Mads 👌🏻

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Graham!

[@FCAMINS]

Greetings: Thanks for this spectacular video, I don't know how many times I've seen it and I wouldn't get tired of seeing it, it's fantastic how you combine music with changes of plane, you are my reference in photography and also in video, It is a Google translator translation, I do not speak English, I am Spanish from Barcelona, it is a pity that I cannot follow your tutorials.

[@MadsPeterIversen]

Thank you very much, Franscesc!

[@bartjes2509]

Thank you for sharing. During all three Iceland trips that I did, going to the Highlands felt like entering another planet, especially the area around Landmannalaugar. Your video illustrates that perfectly.

[@omranabdullah8743]

Amazing

[@robbieallcock]

Absolutely stunning! One of the best things I've seen on KZbin - well done! *round of applause*

[@storefar]

Smuk smuk video, igen en af dine bedste. Flotte optagelser og meget passende musik. Fik næsten en tåre i øjet og længes nu endnu mere efter at komme tilbage til Island.
