ELEMENTS OF ICELAND
Since 15 years I'm traveling and guiding photography tours in Iceland. Although I am Swiss, my heart and soul live in Iceland. At the age of 18 I hiked alone through the Icelandic highlands for almost 3 weeks. Since then I go to this magical place several times a year. A year without Iceland is a lost year. But Iceland has changed a lot within the last years - not least because of photographers and filmmakers like me, who are still getting more people to travel to this little country.
Many tourists in Iceland take no account of this fragile nature. They walk over the moss, let the engine run everywhere, leave their waste lying around, ...
But far from the Golden Cyrcle there is still a huge wealth of beauties that are deserted and untouched. Let us take care of this unique country.

Background Information
The first time I took a drone to Iceland was back in 2013. With a huge and heavy 4000 Watt power generator I had to load my battery packs to get in the air for only 8 minutes. The first drone was a monster and there were no regulations in flying drones in Iceland because drones were new and very rare. In this 5 weeks back in 2013 I could fly in areas and heights which are now prohibited. (some footage in this video has been taken in 2013). Since 2013 drones have changed. They became smaller, faster, better and much cheaper. The first drone I brought to Iceland had a price of over 25'000 Euro - but the biggest part of this production has been taken with a small drone costs 20 times less than that (Mavic Pro / Mavic Pro 2). For me Iceland is one of the most amazing countries on earth. Of course it did change a lot since my first visit. In 2004 there were about 100'000 tourists a year NOW in 2018/2019 they predict over 2.2 Million visitors.

Same here 😃
Also the same
i understand, but to see this with your own eyes is different. I went there and with all senses its even more breathtaking.
@@TheHuetchenspieler was it really expensive? I'm poor so I have to ask hahaa
you can sleep in tent everywhere, for free. You can eat meals prepare yourself. you take 3 friends and rent a car. Iceland can be cheap. You must want :) good luck :)
Iceland is a beautiful country 😍 Bollywood song *Gerua* was shot on South Coast of Iceland. Love from India 🇮🇳
Iceland is so unbelievably beautiful... It’s literally my imagination of heaven
These images are so beautiful that I can't even express myself. I literally found myself crying during the video. So immensely beautiful...
Every moment is like a wallpaper 每一帧都美如壁纸
We were there in 2012 and it is the most memorable and awe inspiring place to go. It was life changing for us. Much love and respect to the Icelanders and their warm hospitality, their pride in their nation and the history they have hard won. Greetings from Australia.
Totally agree. Just back from beautiful Iceland 2 weeks ago. What a memorable trip!
This...video...made me cry.... I love my planet.... please, take care of the earth... I do not want it to dissapear by our mistakes... please....😢

Really you cried
Absolutely breathtaking Stefan. Love the way you split it into chapters. Such epic shots and perfectly accompanied by music. Iceland is on my must visit places thanks for taking me there.
It's like the dream of floating silently over and through some of the most incredible places. Thank you for bringing us that dream.
Incredible! I Was there last week, and part of my heart is still there, and my soul is full os that beauty ! Wow
Probably the most stunningly beautiful scenery, ever! Thank you for sharing your amazing work with us 👏🏻🇬🇧
Stefan, Adi and August tnakyou for give us the better and pristins places of the world.
Thank you very much for your best ++ DOCUMENT. I never seen as this GREAT before.
should win a Nobel! This is like nothing else. Truly amazing thank you for the experience!
A truly beautiful scene...It was so beautiful and wonderful. Thank you so much☆
I've been to Iceland three years ago, and it was one of the most amazing journeys of my life. Incredible country, incredible nature.
Wow our planet is beautifull!!! Thanks, Thanks, Thanks 🙏🙏🙏
Stunning, what a great advertisement for Iceland. When I went there I was shocked not to see trees - Thank you very much for sharing in 4K
This is one of the most superb scenes of Iceland i've seen so far.... love you style, love those great light moments! look forward for more of your video!
Such raw beauty in a landscape story we can only stare at in awe and wonder. More so for the lack of humans. Thank you for bringing this wonderful world to our screens, Stefan.
BLOATED GOAT Mr. Forster you could teach a master-class in photography. Everything I look for in a video, you have it here. You didn't just give music, you lowered its sound to accommodate natural water sounds like the beach and waterfalls. You used shadows and the setting sun to cast glistening light on ice and deep shadows on valleys, mountains and depressions. Congratulations. You are a true professional, sir. BG
It takes one to recognise one.
JUST LKE MEDITATION FOR ME! Thx for that great upload!
Stunning film. There are no words to describe what I just watched. Thank you!
The sound of water flowing🌊....The wind blowing..🌬️...Just feeel it..💙
Absolutely incredible landscape! Amazing aerial footage with stunning edit, congrats 👏👏👏
Wow this world we live in is astoundably beautiful thank you for this😊💕👍
simply THANK YOU.
This work is just pure art at its best. Amazing Stefan.
Absolutely amazing work and such beautiful video and music!
Gran video. Mis más sinceras felicitaciones. Simply Wonderfull.
I've been to Iceland for the first time a year ago.. I've seen so many beautiful footages from Iceland, but not many do it justice. Your video here is the closest I've ever seen that reaches the peak of Icelandic perfection!!!!! Breathtaking!!! Absolutely breathtaking!!!!! Never have I ever seen a country as beautiful and stunning as Iceland. Seeing this video makes me want to go to The Land of Fire and Ice!!!!! Awesome work, as always!!!!!!
I want to say it is amazing. I have watched it many many times. But it is still wonderful. Special thanks for sound engineers. Hats off. Cheers.
Oh my gosh! I've had a 4K TV for about 2 years now. I've watched a lot of 4K videos. But your videos honestly take my breath away.
me too, he is an amazing
Great video. I feel lucky to have been twice to Iceland in the past 2 years. The third time I will be renting a 4X4 in order to explore the high lands and F roads. Beautiful pictures and I recognized a few places too.
Words can't describe the beauty of these shot's. Thanks for sharing your work with us so we can participate the beauty you have seen. It must be breathtaking to see all of this with your own eyes
Absolutely breathtaking! Standing in my living room in front of my 4k TV... Total goosebumps... the exhale over the humpback whale... epic...!! Amazing!! Thank you for sharing!
Amazing! The beauty of what you have shown me has touched me quite profoundly. Don't stop doing what you are doing. Keep up the fantastic work! It must be challenging. You have my utmost respect.
Stefan Foster, deep respect for this more then lifetime project!
Thank you Mr. Forster for making such a wonderful video. It is so masmerising and soothing. You hae done a great favor for those who want to feel the paradise like ambience. God Bless You
Most of the time ...i love to watch such videos for the peace of mind😘it's paradise❤
Beautifully shot! It makes me appreciate Iceland even more from these perspectives above. I visited in 2008 and went back 8 years later where I noticed a huge spike in tourism, there were so many tourists (and film sets)! It would be great to see a documentary about this growing issue. Iceland is such an incredible place.
Congrats, incredible footage!! Best of the best 🙌🏻👌🏻
I can’t even express how in awe I am of your footage! What a beautiful world. Thank you for taking us there!
I'm completely blissed out!
The beauty of creation is breathtaking! Mother Europe holds a special place in my heart.

That was absolutely stunning! Incredible aerial work! We can't wait to go back to Iceland!! This time it will have to be in the summer to see all the green lands! We went in February last year to film for 15 days and loved it so much! Again, amazing video!
One of the best place i have visited i wish if i can spend my whole life in this wilderness, can never get enough of these landscape
Wie beeindruckend und schön die Natur ist. Wenn jeder das so sehen würde wären wir mit ihr in Einklang und würden sie nicht aus Habgier vernichten. Einfach nur wunderschön . Dort sein und alles in ruhe diese schönheit und ruhe in sich aufsaugen. Sich einfach für das öffnen und wirken lassen. Man zerrt davon ein Leben lang. Wenn es schlecht geht einfach in Gedanken zurückzukehren an diesen diesen schönen Ort. Man tankt soviel Kraft daraus.
It's name should have been 'Dreamland' .. I just sank into the Beauty of nature
i'm in love with Iceland from now.... amazing video buddy
I am speechless! There are no words to describe the raw, untouched beauty of this place and the finesse with which it has been captured through your lens! Simply marvelous!!! Goosebumps...

It's so Good to be a photographer and travel to beautiful places like this
Изумительная работа ✔❗🔴 Спасибо ВАМ за такую красоту !!!
Very nice, great Birdseye view of Iceland. Awesome.
Beautiful land and beautifully photographed! Thanks!
I can't get tired of rewatching 👌 breathtaking indeed ❤️🇮🇸
ABSOLUTLY world class drone images ! How much time did you spend in Iceland to get all these different great light conditions ?
probably a couple of days in summer.
Foxtrot Mike Lima are you kidding me ? 😮
@@DreamBig The terrain is so diverse that you could potentially see most of these things within a couple hours of driving just the southern part of the ring road. I'm not really talking about the lighting though, but in the summer you get 24 hours to work with
skatechatham you are right but I was talking about the lighting which is absolutely stunning on the video. I have to admit that I have been only in all season except summer 😁 Congrats again for your awesome job 👏👏
you guys are funny - a couple of days :-) Come to iceland weather and then u will see
Einfach unglaubliche Aufnahmen, wieder toll geworden! Freue mich schon aufs nächste

Stunning. I wish the scenes did not change every four bars of the music. There is so much to take in in each one of them; they are worth more time.
