Seriously Epic Drone Footage from Iceland to Get Your Heart and Wanderlust Racing
PETAPIXEL ^ | Dec 7, 2014 | DL Cade

If Patrick and Lee from Fstoppers and landscape/travel photographer Elia Locardi‘s goal was to get our hearts racing, they’ve succeeded in spades with the drone footage they just released from their time in Iceland.

A “quick cut” of the best drone footage they’ve captured while in Iceland filming one portion of a much larger project, all of the video you see was filmed with a DJI Phantom 2, GoPro Hero 4 Silver and Zenmuse H3-3D gimbal.

Beautiful footage but with that being said, it's a pretty barren looking place if you ask me.......

What I noticed was lots of rocks and not an over abundance of ice and snow as would be suggested by the name of the place..........

I don't think our sea levels would rise if it all melted.......

Iceland really isn’t very ice covered. Just as Greenland isn’t very green.

Perhaps they should trade names.

Nice, but “Seriously Epic”? I think not.

Basically a promo for their project and whatever GoPro gear they were using.

(GoPro seems to do a lot of this BTW)

What's wrong with a promo for a great product? It beats the Fred Thompson ad for reverse mortgages and the "unhappy bladder" commercial.

I LOVED it, Swampy! Makes you feel like there is only the last person on earth. The scenery is stunning yet so austere (very LOTR looking to me). Thank you!

When they were settled a thousand years ago, Greenland WAS green and Iceland WAS ice-covered. But the climate changed.

It it wasn't caused by humans.

Nope. No evil SUVs around back then.
