Palouse. The American Tuscany. The land of rolling hills, saturated colors, and exceptional beauty. The land where Steptoe Butte rises up 1,000 feet above the hills. Shooting there is almost like flying over it in a hovering helicopter.

Gobelin with Kittiwakes
Aerial photography allows capturing the rawness and cold beauty of magnificent Icelandic landscape from a completely different angle.
I love to fly there, love glacial rivers flowing over black basaltic sands, braided streams, kittiwakes flying above turquoise waters, bright, almost fluorescent mosses, and grasses, abstract patterns. It is a complete departure from a land-bound experience with all its limitations. It is more on the liberating, abstract side of photography.
