In August, I returned to Iceland for the third time, part of a larger travel adventure that included the Faroe Islands and Copenhagen. I had hoped to see the Fagradalsfjall volcano erupting but had to settle for a barren lava field. Still, no trip to Iceland goes unrewarded and I got many great photographs of my favorite locations.

The Faroe Islands were spectacular and I was able to visit 7 of the 18 islands in a rented camper van with pop-up roof. I was graced with unusually good weather and pressed my drone into constant service, the only way to capture the full grandeur of the islands.

The final leg of my journey was spent in Copenhagen where I met up with my soccer team from the US to compete in an international tournament. The perfect end to a wonderful vacation.
