Website | Facebook | Instagram The Faroe islands was one of the most beautiful and unique locations I have ever visited. What made this place extra special is the small amount of tourists that have yet found the islands. During this easy few hours’ hike on a rather clear day I only met two other people. Two!?! And this is a tourist destination by Faroese standards. I honestly think nowhere in the world does good infrastructure, beautiful scenery and feel of remoteness come together like they do in Faroe islands. This picture features one of the most amazing sights in the islands with lake Sørvágsvatn floating 30m above sea level and cascading into the atlantic via a waterfall. And all of this can be seen from 140m tall vertical cliffs from where the slaves where once pushed over the edge. Hence the infamous nickname Slave’s Edge. This is as wide as my 16mm lens could go but I’m editing a massive panorama that shows the entire scene at once. I’ll upload that one later but just a small spoiler: the scene is pretty awesome everywhere you look 😉
