Suðurland is a photographic homage to the abstract beauty of our planet. The series of drone photographs reveals fascinating patterns, colors and structures of the river landscapes in the south of Iceland that are usually hidden from our eyes on land. Natural river courses create abstract patterns and show a unique variety of colors due to enriched sediments. Suðurland invites you to view nature as a work of art and to rediscover the hidden aesthetics of this unique landscape.
I traveled to Iceland several times over the past two years to document these braided rivers. This series involved several photographic techniques, from long time exposures to vertical panoramas. It also included a lot of scouting and long distance drone flights, as some of these locations are not easily accessible.
