Gásadalur - Time for the Film!

Now that I'm back, the next phase of fun begins... Running my Film! This is Gásadalur where those of us that braved the super high winds clung to the cliff for this image. I know there are some really good shots of this scene coming from others as well, so stay tuned.

Last blog post..


So I leave this blog with one of my breathtaking discoveries of the Faroes. Apart from the fantastic landscapes I'm thrilled to have met Tóndur Patturson and his art. This is in the Catholic Church in Thorshavn, and a very favourite of mine:

Be well! And try to visit these wonderful islands if you can. Léon

Last day :-(

It's a sad fact but this is our last day here on the Faroes. This morning we had a great shoot at the Saksun village. All the sheep along the road had this melancholic look in their eyes as if they new we are flying out early tomorrow morning..
But there it is.. Nothing to be done about it. It was a fabulous trip with a great group of kind people with a binding healthy passion for photography, all very well organised and led by Bill!

On Kunoy Island

The farmer, Jón told me that this house is several hundred years old. Now it is for his sheep to get out of the weather. A room with a view for some lucky sheep!


The Crew

The fearless crew today in the beautiful village of Vidareidi on Vidoy Island.
L-R Steven, Deena, Léon, Ian, Linda, Ike and Bill

Snow !

Back to Vidoy today.. Partly because Ian had missed it the first time we were there due to a severe cold. It's not a site to be missed! On the other hand it had snowed the whole night and the mountains were looking spectacular like this one near Klaksvik:

When arriving at Vidoy it all looked great again although the skies were a bit to flat for really great images. After shooting for a few hours we went to have lunch and all hell broke lose, heavy snow fell for the rest of the day. That's typical for the Faroese weather; four seasons in a day.. As long as you are at the right moment at the right spot your images will be great..
