4K timelapse shot with Sony and Zeiss gear perfectly illustrates Iceland as a photographer’s paradise

 

 

If you have spent any time looking at landscape images on the internet, you have almost certainly seen photos from Iceland. The small island nation in the North Atlantic is a treasure trove of amazing vistas that would make any photographer smile. A recent timelapse video from Nick Kontostavlakis called “Whispering Iceland” shows as well as any timelapse I’ve seen how visually distinct and stunning Iceland is.

The 4K video features a wide variety of popular locations in Iceland, including Vik, Reykjavik, Dyrholaey, a glacial lagoon and plenty of waterfalls! The Greek photographer utilized a variety of gear included Sony cameras and lenses and Zeiss lenses. The timelapse was processed and edited using Lightroom, Final Cut Pro X, After Effects and the LRTimelapse plug-in.

If possible, watch the video below in 4K resolution as the level of detail in Kontostavlakis’s work is staggering and best enjoyed full screen at the highest possible resolution.

Iceland is clearly a photographer’s paradise. To see more of Nick Kontostavlakis’s work, visit his website and follow him on Instagram. You can see more of his video work here.
