Aurora at Búðir Church, Snæfellsnes, Iceland

“Watching the aurora borealis dance across the night sky is an awe-inspiring experience that makes it easy to understand why early humans saw these celestial displays as messages from or gateways to heaven. Every chance to capture them through my lens feels like a unique opportunity to capture the enchanting magic of our universe. This is especially true when paired with a visit to Búðir church on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula.

Búðir church, a historic building that tells a profound story of Iceland’s culture and history, was once abandoned and almost left to disrepair during industrialization. However, as tourism breathed new life into the countryside, the church became a symbol of revival. Its surroundings, with the spectacular landscape and windswept ambiance, perfectly reflect the essence of the region.”
