I were in that same cave probably about 4 months before your visit. Got one of my favourite photo with the river and a moment of sunshine. Also on that beach a tourist died on sneaker wave couple days after my trip. Saw it on the news. Years before I got sneaker wave but I only sunk to the beach on my knees and got away with my camera...
Great to see you back in Iceland! Love the ice cave images. Those diamond beach ice berg photos were abit different from your passed ones! Keep up the good work Brendan 📸❤️
Brendan I agree with you on the sony color issues no matter what I did with my sony a7iii I could never get the colors correct in camera. They were close but never quite 100% its the reason I switched back to nikon.
Sometimes the best photos of ice involve feeling a little bit of ice inside your boots to get the true feeling! I've really enjoyed your latest Iceland series!
Great video, Brendan - it made me pine for my favourite place on earth. I heard a rumour that the Black Sand Beach at Vik may soon be closed to visitors ... too many drownings. Last June I attempted some slow shots of the sea stacks (9:08 in your video) .. but was absolutely blasted by the wind and sand, with no chance of keeping the tripod still (my wife thought/thinks I'm nuts. Ha ha!). Somehow, we never get to Diamond Beach during our winter trips to Iceland ... will there be any ice in September?
Hi John, I think it's just a rumour. I can't imagine they'll close it. As for ice at Diamond beach. Yes, it's there year round. Sometimes it gets a bit clogged in the lagoon or blown away by winds and currents, but it's almost always there.
In and around the ice lagoon is really great. But i missed this cave. Diamond beach is very beautiful and great for detail shots. Also, I learned the first thing about sea scape photography. Cut of by the tide 😮
In 2017, the sea got me even though I was being the careful one in the group. It snapped my Gitzo tripod in half and claimed my camera and lens. I had so much black sand in my clothes that they were all put in the trash. I was a good 50 feet from shore break.
Ford F4 Billion, nice👍🤣 Those ice cave close-up images are cool 👍😎Way to stay positive "At least it's not raining"🤣🤣🤣 The lens lends well to your images👍👍 always great BvS quotes💭
Funny enough after saying Sony was not able to capture blue color properly in the caves, the very next scene on the beach had the opposite problem. The scenes shot with the canon looked WAY too blue and over-saturated, while the Sony ones looked much more natural.
@@GregSheard The comment about Sony and colours was pretty pointless lol. Just another entry in the ongoing Sony vs Canon argument. But it's his channel...so what are you gonna do. Better that he focuses on fixing those user errors lol
He looked like dead in the next scene. No wonder it was blue in the cave when you push the white balance like that. The footage of the sony looks so much better.
It's a sony problem. And to be honest, they've improved it a lot since the A7ii. It used to be horrible. Their colour science has always been a bit off when it comes to blue. Using a good white balance and colour grading can definitely help and get you close, but it's way more work

January 30th, eh? Only 6 months behind and you've already finished your Summer trip to Iceland. At least you've gotten some awesome images. 👍🥂
Getting low on those sea stacks and showing some wave motion is the move!
Yeah man, i remember your image from there like that was a banger!
Great video!
Drone in a snow storm... you are corageus!
Watching this makes me want to go back to alaska, and reshoot some glaciers and ice caves.
Hello Brendan!!! Another wonderful video and the captures are so beautiful!! Great to see the winter side of Iceland!! Take Care!!!
Once again, I love your work Brendan! Another fantastic episode in ICELAND....enjoy going home. Cheers
Thanks Phil!
I was in that cave in March. Found the approach walk a bit challenging! Totally soaked feet on Diamond beach as well!
Absolutely love your channel and content. Been following you for 3 years now. You deserve much more views and credits !!!
Thank you so much, appreciate the support.
Terrific video Brendan, loved the drone sequence with the lighthouse.
Thanks! Yeah, Greg nailed the drone footage!
Have you seen the series "Katla" it is based in Vik? These conditions look perfect for the series.
I haven't. I was meaning to. Is it good?
@@BrendanvanSon I quiet liked it. Some murder mistery mixed with X-Files and a little bit of Stranger Things.
Accidentally got to your video. Beautiful pictures. 👍👏👏👏
Thanks mate!
Brendan I agree with you on the sony color issues no matter what I did with my sony a7iii I could never get the colors correct in camera. They were close but never quite 100% its the reason I switched back to nikon.
I like the Sony cinematic look for video. It's a vibe. But it also drives me a little crazy just because it doesn't look with how I saw it.
Sometimes the best photos of ice involve feeling a little bit of ice inside your boots to get the true feeling! I've really enjoyed your latest Iceland series!
Totally agree!
Did you take that epic ice shot in the water with your cheapie 17-40 EF lens? Fantastic!
I did!

@@BrendanvanSon Thanks, Brendan ... roll on September! 😀
Always the best travel content😎🤜🏼🤛🏼
Thanks Dan!
Nice cvideo. Would you please to advise me which company to contact with to ice cave? Thanks.
In and around the ice lagoon is really great. But i missed this cave.
Diamond beach is very beautiful and great for detail shots.

The cave is cool. But it's sketchy ay high tide.
In 2017, the sea got me even though I was being the careful one in the group. It snapped my Gitzo tripod in half and claimed my camera and lens. I had so much black sand in my clothes that they were all put in the trash. I was a good 50 feet from shore break.
It's scary sometimes for sure. Glad you were ok!
You‘re right, the Canon colors really look great! :)
Amazing ...... thank you !

Thanks man!
You got some real bangers in this one. And I love the drone footage. Looks like you made the best of a bad situation there.
Thank you Tracy. Even the worst situation in Iceland is a good situation most places haha
Funny enough after saying Sony was not able to capture blue color properly in the caves, the very next scene on the beach had the opposite problem. The scenes shot with the canon looked WAY too blue and over-saturated, while the Sony ones looked much more natural.
That was definitely a user error though, haha. I had the white balance still on the wrong setting from the night before.
Sony not shooting blue is just bs, its just a matter of adjusting your colours in the picture profile settings and white balance etc

Nice one Brendan.
Cheers, Paul
Is the blue-lag of the sony-cameras just a "white-balance" thing, or more a general problem?
It's a sony problem. And to be honest, they've improved it a lot since the A7ii. It used to be horrible. Their colour science has always been a bit off when it comes to blue. Using a good white balance and colour grading can definitely help and get you close, but it's way more work
Phenomenal images Brendan!
Thank you!
Great video Brendan. You seem to be out of sync with the seasons, but that’s perfect as right now I’m planning my winter Iceland trip.
Yeah, I'm way behind lol
Not many shots - but good ones!
Excellent video
Thanks!!
Yes, it was worth it!
I think so too 😁
Quicker than TH-cam notifications: Brendan on twitter 🤣
haha, so true.
When are you going to give us a life update?
Soon. Haha. I've been planning one for months.
Not only blue, Canon's autofocus is also better....
Curling is the best Ice Sport. 🥌🥌🥌
Even better than Icelandic Ice Sliding?
