Who would like to leave home in deep winter and go somewhere just as cold & windier? We did. In Feburary of 2015, Dave & I plus a group of photographer friends arrive Iceland for a 2 weeks+ photography tour.  We endure the wet & raining days, very windy days that at one point the wind was so strong that I thought it would blown us off down into the 500 ft drop waterfall and kill us all. Yeah, Iceland is not for the ones with a faint heart... Beautiful, Rugged, Cold, Wet but we are at awe with the whole experience. It was just fantastic!

A little tibits - Be aware the natural elements of Iceland - it can be very hard to your equipment. Most of the time, my gear all wet, so consistant I have to wipe clear my lense as well as pay careful attention to hang on to everything so that it wouldn't got blown away. It was the first time for me - I experienced loosing images due to a faulty compact flash Chip (lexar pro 32GB). Dave tried to recover the images using our Hyper Drive but failed. What a shame! After our return home, Dave sent the faulty compact flsh to Lexar and they returned me with a blank 32 GB card after sending me a broken CD full of someone elses photos! So I draw the conclusion that if the Hyper Drive can not recover it, then the photos are lost for good!

I still had a great time, come home with some memorable photographs and the beauty of this land keep calling me to return for more!
