An arctic fulmar playfully flies around right beneath Mulafossur, the popular waterfall just next to the iconic village Gasadalur on the Faroe islands.
This image was shot in pretty hard conditions with a supertele photo lens.
After taking the obligatory images showcasing the grand scene in all
it´s glory, i started focussing on the birds that seemed to be completely unbothered by the harsh weather.
In this decade of landscape photography, i learned about myself that i prefer finding places that really speak to me and visit them many times. Instead of the constant search for something new.
I need to establish a connection to the place itself in order to find my own visual voice.
The Faroe islands are one of these places that i keep visiting since many years. A tiny archipelago in the middle of nowhere in the atlantic ocean which features fantastic nature and a very wild and untamed environment.
Passenger is not only a picture about a bird flying across a waterfall.
It´s an image about myself.
I am the passenger.
You can be the passenger too!
