Pocketful of Dream – Vágar, Faroe Islands

Monday, July 2, 2012 Posted inPhotography

This is my first release from my recent trip to the beautiful Faroe Islands. Situated in the heart of the Gulf Stream in the North Atlantic at 62°00’N, the Faroe Islands lie northwest of Scotland and halfway between Iceland and Norway. The archipelago is composed of 18 islands covering 1399 km2 and is 113 km long and 75 km wide, roughly in the shape of an arrowhead. I highly recommend this incredible location to all photographers and nature lovers..The weather constantly changes and creates some pretty amazing light perfect to capture dramatic images like this one. Again, I would like to say a big thank you to Súsanna Sørensen from the Faroe tourist board for making this trip a very pleasant one. Do not hesitate to contact http://www.visitfaroeislands.com/ for any information your may need about the islands. They have been more than helpful in providing me with all the information I needed.

Hey Patrick, I am from San Francisco and following a similar call what you have inside you. Thank you for the amazing motivation you provide via your powerful images!

Pretty darn awesome shot! The obvious question: did you do a soak?

Michael J. Flaherty - July 28, 2012 - 6:06 pm

Hey by the way, I really love the design of this site, especially your background. Love to do one like this one day when I can either afford to pay someone or learn the code myself.

Patrick Di Fruscia - August 1, 2012 - 4:08 am

Thanks Michael, I did the layout myself starting with a template i bought and tweaked it to fit the look of my website. About the soak…no I didn’t, Was a bit took cold ;)
