22 Photos That Will Make You Want to Visit Iceland

If you’re into photography, then you must put Iceland on your travel bucket list — it’s a photographer’s paradise! Everywhere you turn, there’s something new and interesting to photograph. Trust me, you’ll come back from a trip to Iceland with a memory card bursting with photos. This post contains my personal favorite 22 photos that I took on my two week trip to Iceland in July. It was so tough deciding which ones to include (yes, I tried to make it 20 for a simple round number, but it was too tough, so you get an extra two!)
