Resume day 2


Apart from the incredible scenery, the weather is exactly my cup of  tea..
The clouds have been stunning all day and the wind helps me enormously with my long exposure black and white images.. It's going to be a joyful undertaking to edit them in the next months..

An iPhone shot through the window of our van, decending to Funningur. I hope for the same conditions today as we go to Vidoy island...

In the Gorge... Gjógv


A white knuckle, snowy drive over the mountains today was well worth it as we arrived in the village of Gjógv and had coffee, tea and a fantastic vegetable soup before visiting the natural attraction for which the village gets it's name. A magnificent gorge cut into the cliffs that provides a safe refuge from the North Atlantic's waves. Pictured below inside the gorge is a ghost stairway into the water.

Day 2


Parlament building, just 3 minutes from our hotel in Thorshavn.
The scenery is overwhelming here on the Faroes, beyond anything I expected.
Off to breakfast now and eager for day 2!

Beach Detail - Tjørnuvik

What Ike said... Spent the entire day exploring the Island of Stremoy from top to bottom. It always takes some time to ramp up and start feeling it, but if today is any indication, it's going to be a great 10 days. The group is meshing well and I can already tell the work from this trip will be top shelf.
