Alone In Iceland – A Beautiful Time Lapse Showing The Country

Photographer André Öberg took on the mission to show how beautiful Iceland is via a time lapse movie. Now, usually we cover high-end loads of tech, heavy on the gear time lapses, but this time we were fascinated with how beautiful a time lapse done with so little gear can be. Andre traveled for “almost 3.500Km, hiked around 100km, met lots of people and have seen unbelievable landscapes.“.

Maybe it was the light gear that enabled this extreme journey using only a Canon 7D, Canon 17-55mm 2.8, Canon 50mm 1.4 and a GoPro Hero 3 (only used in the car shots) and leaving the motion part to post.
