Nordic Islands

One of the most renowned nature photographers in Europe, Stefan Forster, documents the extraordinary Nordic islands. Over the course of more than 80 intrepid trips through Greenland, Iceland, Norway, and the Faroe Islands, Forster captures the epic landscapes, wildlife, and beauty of these far-flung isles. Lush green meadows, staggering cliff faces, and vast blue icebergs drifting in the sea: in his latest photographic collection, renowned nature photographer Stefan Forster captures the epic and nature of the Nordic islands. Forster's journey saw him walking hundreds of kilometers through the Highlands of Iceland, paddling a kayak along the west coast of Greenland, sailing on an old wooden ship through the mighty Scoresby Sound of East Greenland, and scaling one of the steepest cliffs on the Faroe Islands. His photographs capture not only these extraordinary landscapes, but also their native inhabitants: young polar foxes, musk ox families, sea eagles, and puffins. The result is a fascinating photographic portrait of some of the most remote and ruggedly beautiful places on earth. Forster's breathtaking images are accompanied by fascinating behind-the-scenes anecdotes and making-of insights. The result is an irresistible publication for all photography fans, nature lovers, travellers, and devotees of Nordic style.
