This was a crazy photography trip. Going to Hornstrandir in the winter to photograph arctic foxes is challenging, to say the least. Despite the crazy weather and terrible conditions out of this world, this was a photography adventure of a lifetime.

IS'NT IT GREAT TO BE WITH SOMEONE YOU TRULY
LOVE & DO WHAT YOU TRULY LOVE!!! WATCHING FOXES !!!
Absolutely the ultimate experience - happy you liked it.
Photography, wildlife and snow are my favourites.👍
The most beautiful images I've ever seen of an artic fox. 👏👏👏
100% spectacular, wow
Wow!!!
I've not watched an upload from your channel for 2-3 months now, not being notified plus other reasons. Whilst watching this video it reminded me of why I subscribed in the first place. Some of your snaps actually got me a little emotional. They are some genuinely beautiful pieces of art work. I don't mind saying that if I had produced those pictures I would be really quite proud of myself. Well done. Good luck and good life.
Those images are crazy - you should seriously think about making that a small photographer tour! Your videos are awesome, keep them coming!
wonderful pictures. thank you for sharing
Wow, some great moments captured guys. Appreciate your struggle so I can enjoy these images in comfort!
Dakman DotCom Thank you, great to hear you like it.
GYDA and Gudmann, it is incredible how they just transported me to that spectacular and beautiful adventure, I felt full of snow and cold as you were and believe me that this type of content fascinates me. Thank you very much for allowing me to travel with you and live such a beautiful experience minute by minute. A hug from Mexico!!
Thank you Nego! Best wishes to Mexico from Iceland!
Gyda & her snowshoes 😊❤️
Your captures echo the preciousness of life in this harsh world.
Wish everyone could see the world & appreciate its' singular beauty as you both do.
Gamin little foxes so hardy & sweet.
You make an amazing team. The images are awesome. Thanks for sharing.
Really admire your efforts.....crazy is just a word, but this craziness that brings something wonderful
Glad you enjoy it!
Wonderful.
Glad you think so!
@6:39 The look of someone who knows they bagged a great image 😁A fantastic video and such commitment to get out there to produce it. What a tough life those foxes have.
Your commitment to getting your shots and the fantastic quality of the shots is an inspiration to us all, thank you for posting your vids that I have only just found. I wish I could visit Iceland
Glad you enjoyed it and thank you for watching.
Considering going to Iceland in January I must admit this weather you experienced here is just as crazy as you say (note to self: bring warm clothes!)...amazing photos though and a big admiration for your work and videos...truly inspiring.
Well done some excellent photos not only of the environment but the foxes. Hope you enjoyed your warm showers, watching this made me feel a bit cold.
Perfect conditions, ha ha. Butt with nice results who reflects these conditions very well. Great clothing in wich you are still very comfortable are very welcome then.
I think I've watched this about 15 times now and it's hard for me to get tired of it. The whole thing is so cool! From the insane setting and conditions to the photos of the foxes to the music you chose it all fits perfectly. Your channel is one of the best. I look forward to when you release new content!
Glad you enjoyed it! We have been thinking about re-doing this video, since we have possibly learnt more in video editing (and audio) since it was published. There is another video coming up about arctic fox photography. It is not yet on the to-do list. We have already shot the material, but the plan is to publish it later this winter. It´s great to hear you appreciate what we are doing.
Lovely video and images. Totally amazing experience
Its amazing i loved the expression of lady when she saw the foxes on mountain. Pics are awesome
U guys are nizz 😍👍✌️
Such a sweet souls these foxes. This was so moving and made me cry. What tough conditions to live in and to photograph. Thank you for sharing this with us.

This was just super to see. I have a lot of pictures from Norway, but wish some day to get the possibility to see and photograph in Iceland. So lets hope there is opening of travelling again for our planned trip in November :) Thank you for sharing.
Thank you Arnfinn. The world situation is going to get better and travel will be a normal thing again. We also look forward going to Norway photographing. Norway has a lot to offer as you know. Now - dreaming of future trips will have to do.
Magnað!
Inspiring to watch. You make me want to go out and shoot right NOW!
Grab your gear and go out!
@@GudmannAndGyda And I did just that today! Brown pelicans and Brandt's cormorants at La Jolla Cove this AM! I lovely day.
The obvious showing of hard work and dedication pays off when you get such an incredible opportunity to shoot not just one but two Arctic foxes.
I'm just wondering why one of the two are brown? I thought ALL Arctic foxes were snow white in color (?). NTL, ABSOLUTELY incredible footage!!!
very good experience you guys had...! love it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for this video insight of the location, one of my target mammals to photograph, hopefully next winter obviously after Covid-19 has settled down. Keep warm and keep safe.
The Arctic Fox is a magnificent creature - hope you will meet one someday. Thank you!
love it!!!! thank you~
No problem 😊
Beautiful video. It was very magical to watch. I live in Isafjordur and frequent Hornstrandir. Just subscribed to your channel :)
Thank you!
Fantastic video, I prefer to photograph in the cold and snow! Great video guys thank you for sharing your adventures!
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching.
Thanks for sharing! I'm a birder living in the US and in 2019 while visiting my in-law i got to ride scooter around a farming area in small town 3 hours out of Ho Chi Minh city and photographed over 30 species of colorful birds. Your video is stuff only dreams are made of at this point but I can understand the excitement just being up close and personal with beautiful animals whether a fox or a kingfisher bird.
Gaman að filgja ykkur gamli vinur. Flott
thank you for the expirence of this remote area, you deserve to record great images with the effort put in ,great;;

Awesome, thank you Nicole!
@@GudmannAndGyda You are welcome 🙏🥰
Nobody else can see the foxes are wanting to get out of the wind, but oh look Photographers are in the shelter?
Uno tiene que sentir, disfrutar y amar la fotografía para trabajar en estos ambientes. Sois un ejemplo para muchos de nosotros que amamos y disfrutamos. Un saludo desde España. Como me gustaría que pudierais hacer un vídeo sobre las aves playeras.
Thank you Abel, possibly one day we will make a video about shorebirds. It´s difficult now in all this snow ;-)
How does your camera gear shape up in them harsh conditions, that’s a real test for any make of camera or lense , brilliantly made video .
Good question! The conditions we were in there were crazy. So many challenges to overcome, not only regarding the equipment. The pro Nikon cameras are capable of withstanding harsh conditions like we had there by us being careful, protecting the gear and trying to keep it dry. This was not always the case. Einar once dropped the Nikon Z6 body when walking in a snowstorm. It fell off the lens. Found out later that the body was missing from the 500 mm lens. By going back we found the Z6 in the snow - full of snow. The mount and the sensor was full of snow. After drying the body for 5 hours over gas it was just fine. This shows how tough the mirrorless system is. I am not sure the DSLR´s would have survived. This is why Einar has today a shoelace tied between the lens and the body. The most difficult problem is to keep moisture out of the lenses. If you take a lens into a warm house after being outside it dampens up and getting rid of the moisture takes a long time. So... we keep the gear either outside or at least in cold conditions. This Nikon gear is tough and we trust it for anything. We don´t treat our gear well, we try to be careful, but we use it and if we can go outside the gear should be able to take the same beating as we do. So far the gear has survived. In conditions like these the gear often freezes - the eyepieces get full of moisture from the warm face - the tripod legs get frozen in a fixed position etc... ;-)
what month was the video shot? thanks🔥
Hey you both, ... ever thought about doing this professional ...?? :-) :-) :-) ... Seriously, take any superlativ ... you deserve them all !!! 9:03 min: Thank you God !! All the best for you and I really be thankful that I found you.
Thank you so much 😀 - you never know what we do in the future.
