Midnight sun.
Late summer’s night in remote Hornstrandir, Westfjords of Iceland.
On top of the mountain in the second image is seen a relic of the Cold War era, the US Air Force’s Straumnes Air Station.
A video short of Önundarfjörður, which served as our base, is attached below the stills.

Hi Rajan: The third photo in this set is a winner. Its ‘presence’ is overwhelming, so much so that the viewer can almost feel like (s)he is right there in the seat next to you. Great impact!
Thank you, Bob. Yes, I like the third image, too.
Such a beautiful Country Rajan! I love the landscape! So alien yet so familiar! The sitar music is fantastic! Haven’t really heard this musical instrument since my days post Vietnam. The helo video was perfect! I always enjoyed flying in a helo. You can see the landscape without it disappearing to fast as in a plane. Super work here amigo!
Thank you, Dan.
