Kiwi watching Icelandic video of the world
"Iceland freezes time" HD no code
This video shooting equipment: 5d3 / Sony A7 / Dajiang spirit 3 pro4k / gorpo 4K / smart cloud stabilizer series / iPhone 6S (in a word... We have tried our best
This is a long-term trip. When you meet the right person, you can easily squeeze out 17 days of vacation and fly to distant northern Europe. Four people from the South have never seen such a fairy tale world of ice and snow. I saw the skirt of Aurora dance at night, stroked the soft and thick mane of the Icelandic horse once, enjoyed the beautiful snowscape of birch forest, met an old man I wanted to see in my childhood... And there are many fantasy pictures. I am looking forward to meeting a dreamlike ice and snow Wonderland in this magical Arctic circle.
Nordic three countries 17 day trip, the longest stay in Iceland for 9 days, choose the self driving tour around the island. It can be said that the self driving trip in Iceland was not so smooth. I had two ice and snow road closures and nearly got stuck. Dajiang spirit 3 almost blew up the plane because it couldn't fight against the Icelandic wind. Because there was no positioning and coordinates, it was all based on the reserved final landing video to calculate the landing site of the aerial camera. It was very difficult to find the plane. It was exploring the way at the foot of the IceMelting volcano without a road, He abandoned a pair of uggs. However, his feet were buried in the snow water and couldn't move. In the end, he dragged his shoes and dug his feet out of the melting snow water by hand. Although the plane was successfully found, his brave friends also had a gorgeous fever... Many scenic spots were covered with ice and had to be viewed from afar. Six of the nine days had cloudy days and heavy rain and snow, This is a fatal blow to the photographer... Baby's heart is bitter! No two drivers can't resist visiting scenic spots and driving in the daytime, and even taking pictures of the aurora in the evening. The self driving trip in Iceland has also given us a lot of surprises, such as watching the aurora for four days in nine days, finding the aerial camera, meeting the Icelandic horse without fence, and so on. Of course, we have to look forward to the following travel notes.
Travel information
Experience the fun of dog sledding in Rovaniemi.
Seeing the old man whom I want to meet most at Christmas every year, he really exists and brings everyone moving, surprise and happiness.
Take a walk in Sweden's cave subway station.
Like Daydreamer walking on Icelandic highway one with a skateboard.
Leave a group photo in the most distinctive harlems Church in Iceland.

Before the wreckage of the famous scenic spot was closed, a mechanical girl image from the future was left.
Stand on the basalt and watch the strong wind and waves on the black beach.
Touching Icelandic horses without fences, they are not as wild and uninhibited as they think. On the contrary, they are not only handsome, but also curious, docile, timid, greedy and close to people.
Try a stormless glacier hike.
Of course, in order to take aerial photos of the hafar crater, the poor little plane was blown two kilometers away by the Icelandic wind. After the plane lost contact and forced to land, it traveled for two hours, and it was very rare to find it back.
For this long planned trip to the three northern European countries, our four people, from having a preliminary idea of travel to travel, made a full plan for two months, made itinerary, reserved air tickets, reserved accommodation, reserved car rental, and then went to Schengen to sign an application. Everything went very smoothly.

About car rental and self driving around Iceland
Iceland, which means "frozen land", is covered by glaciers. The best travel season is from May to September. The average temperature is about 10 degrees, and the maximum temperature can reach 24 degrees. Generally, the requirements for vehicles are not too high. From October to April of the next year is winter. In the Icelandic winter with an average temperature of - 2 degrees, the days are short, windy and snowy, and icy roads often appear. Therefore, self driving needs to be extra careful.
Due to the underdeveloped transportation, sparsely populated land and the long distance between scenic spots, it is generally the best way to visit Iceland by taking part in a local tour group or renting a car.

In Iceland, most of the car rental companies can accept the domestic C version plus English driver's license translation to rent a car. We have ordered the models needed by Ford SUV through car rental in China in advance, and the free Chinese GPS will send them to customers through car rental after placing the order.
When you arrive at Reykjavik airport in Iceland, you first call the car rental company that ordered the car, and then wait for a few minutes. A staff member will come to the airport to pick up the customer with the sign of the customer's name and deliver it to the pick-up point.
The pick-up point is not far from the airport. It's about 2 minutes' drive. The pick-up point and return point we ordered are all here. Submit your passport and translator at the pick-up point, and fill in the form. Here are the car rental instructions in different languages (including Chinese).
The basic package only includes the order price of one driver. If there are two or more drivers in the same company, the price of one more driver will be included in the insurance order. Don't save this money. In case of a traffic accident, the insured drivers are more secure. You know that.
After the car pick-up procedure is completed, the staff will take the customer to pick up the car. Before picking up the car, they will check the car to see if there is any damage outside the car body. The damage will be marked on the order, and they will check again when returning the car to check whether there is any new damage. You need to return the car full of gas. There is a gas station 50 meters away from the return point. If you don't know, you can go to the return point first and ask the staff to take you to refuel. Our car is full of three big boxes and a small box, everything is ready, ready to go!
Icelandic gas station Icelandic gas station is divided into two, one is green N1, the other is red orkan. N1 has its own gas card. Orkan can use a credit card, but it must have a password (full currency international chip credit card). Orkan gas station: it's better to prepare a full currency credit card with chip (commonly known as: full currency international chip credit card). The general MC and visa can not swipe the gas card, especially after work time, there is no staff in the gas station, which is more troublesome. So please remember to bring the full currency international chip credit card. N1 gas station: if there is no full currency international chip credit card, it doesn't matter. Buy a N1 prepaid card manually at the counter of N1 gas station, and generally recharge 3000 to 5000 kronor, and then go to the gas station to use it. It is not recommended to buy too many cards at a time because this card can only be used in service stations of the same brand. Note: after Iceland leaves the city, there are not many gas stations, especially in the remote north. They are often separated by tens of kilometers. Moreover, some gas stations only go to work at 10 o'clock and work very early. Therefore, to refuel the car, try to choose the day time and go to the gas station filled with people（ Generally, we fill up the fuel every two days and drive in remote places. If the fuel tank has been used more than half, we should pay attention to refuel along the way in case of emergency on the road. If the fuel is not enough, it will be very troublesome.)
Q: is the road to Iceland easy to drive? A: the road condition in summer is better than that in winter. Not all roads in Iceland are asphalt roads. Most of them are gravel roads. In addition, Iceland has many mountains, fjords, bends and slopes. Although most of the slopes are not very steep, it is recommended that SUV is the first choice no matter what season you go. During the period from October to April of the next year, the requirements for self driving car rental will be relatively higher. Of course, drivers should pay more attention to safe driving. In case of rain, snow and frequent clouds and fog in the fjords, we must slow down and turn on the fog lights to keep the distance between the front and rear vehicles. Note: most winter tires are snow tires.
Q: what should I pay attention to when driving in Iceland? Everyone in the car, please fasten your seat belt. 2. The maximum speed limit is 50 km / h for urban areas, 80 km / h for gravel roads and 90 km / h for asphalt roads. In case of ice and snow, the maximum speed limit is 50 km / h. Pay attention to the speed limit signs along the road and slow down at any time according to the road conditions. 3. Don't whistle and slow down when crossing the road when encountering pasture horses, cattle, horses and other livestock. If necessary, please stop and let them go first. 4. Except for the urban areas, there are many single side bridges in the suburbs of Iceland. You can only pass one car at a time. You must slow down and observe whether there are vehicles on the opposite side. If there are, let the other party's vehicles go ahead. 5. In order to protect Iceland's natural environment and normal vegetation growth, Icelandic law strictly forbids driving vehicles on roads other than roads. 6. It is strictly forbidden to drive under the influence of alcohol, drunk or using mobile phones to make phone calls while driving.
Icelandic road information if you are driving around the island in Iceland, you should take the inland mountain road or some minority areas before you travel http://www.road.is Check the road section to the destination. Different colors indicate different road conditions. Green means smooth, yellow means some ice road sections, blue means wet road sections, purple means extremely wet road sections, white means a lot of ice and snow road sections, and red means completely impassable road sections. Road information can also be manually inquired by calling 1777. Consultation is available from 8:00 to 16:00 every day in summer (May 1 to October 14) and from 6:30 to 22:00 every day in winter (October 15 to April 30).
We went from Hoff to Ling á s guesthouse. We didn't check the road condition before we came out. We took a shortcut, inland road and mountain road. We met heavy snow twice. We got stuck in the car one step before we met the front car twice. Even turning around on such mountain road is dangerous, let alone helping to tow the car. The trapped people can only find an ambulance to tow the car. It's really dangerous. In Iceland, if you need help, first aid or call the police, please dial 112.
Especially when you see such a sign on the road, don't drive forward. It must be closed by ice and snow. In case of an accident, the cost of calling an ambulance for rescue will be much higher than that of ordinary road sections.
For details of the Icelandic self driving strategy and safety instructions, please see: http://cn.guidetoiceland.is/travel-info/drive-iceland-safely
About navigation
1.GPS: after renting a car, there is a GPS that can be installed on the car, in Chinese. If you are not used to GPS, you can use two kinds of navigation. 2. Google Map: Download Google map offline package, it is very convenient to set up map attractions. 3. iPhone brings its own map: iPhone takes its own map, and needs to be connected to the Internet. Sometimes Google Maps suck no force. IPhone can bring its own map to verify directions and location, and Internet traffic depends entirely on roaming treasure.
About cash and credit card
In the Nordic countries, it's very convenient to swipe the card. Whether you go shopping in a small supermarket or buy fast food, the general MC and visa can swipe the card without changing the local currency. Four of us, 17 days in the whole process, took 500 euros, and basically used credit card after use. So I haven't even seen and touched the Icelandic currency in 9 days. Of course, it's best to prepare a full currency credit card with chip (commonly known as: full currency international chip credit card). In Iceland, you need this kind of all currency international chip credit card to refuel. MC and visa can't swipe the card to refuel. Especially when it's off duty, there are no staff at the gas station, which is troublesome. So please remember to bring the full currency international chip credit card.
About travel equipment
For the shooting of this video, of course, the main models are 5d3 and Sony A7. The camera will not be described in detail. The second is mainly based on the shooting of Dajiang spirit 3 pro4k / gorpo 4K / smart cloud stabilizer series / iPhone 6S.
As for Icelandic aerial photography, I would like to remind you that the size of Icelandic aerial photography, the weather of the day, and the wind resistance level of its own aerial photography machine have a lot to do with it. On rainy, snowy and windy days in winter in Iceland, the wind resistance performance of Dajiang spirit 3pro I brought was much worse than that of Dajiang Wu's level 5 wind resistance. After all, the price is different, so it is inevitable that Dajiang spirit 3pro will be better in terms of performance. Dajiang spirit 3 can't fly when it snows and rains, and it's too windy to be competent for flight shooting tasks. Especially in Iceland, the wind is too strong and strange, sometimes it's too windy to take off at all, or it's blown far away after taking off. So I missed a lot of beautiful sceneries in Iceland. Secondly, the temperature in Iceland is relatively low. As a result, the battery loses power very quickly. If the battery can fly for 20 minutes, it may lose power in 10 minutes when it is fully charged. Therefore, in extremely low temperature, we must pay attention to the power indication. Generally, if we have 50% power left, we can lower the altitude and return, On this trip, our Dajiang spirit 3 was very bad because of the strong wind. It was blown far away, and the power dropped quickly. It couldn't fly back under 30% of the power, so we had to make a forced landing. It took us more than 2 hours to find it back!!!
Among them, Zhiyun stabilization instrument takes up one third of the shooting task. When shooting by hand or by fixed suction cup, it can not only remotely control the shooting direction, but also make the pictures anti shake, Especially in the hand-held running or walking, the shooting effect is surprisingly good (but there are also suction cups outside the car, and the effect will be discounted when walking on rough roads).
There is also the 4K shooting part of the iPhone 6S. In fact, the 4K shooting of the 6S is very powerful, and the built-in 4K has very good performance. It is completely competent for shooting tasks. If you add Zhiyun's handheld stabilizer, it will be even more powerful. Especially for those friends who love shooting, you can easily travel with 6S + handheld stabilizer（ When shooting 4K, remember to have a large capacity of 6S. It's better to shoot 64g

A: Yes, but you need to go with friends who can speak English. Because the whole transportation / asking for directions / accommodation / dining / renting a car / traveling / even calling for help after being in distress all need English communication. If you don't speak English, you will be totally blind. So let's go on an unforgettable trip to northern Europe together with children's shoes with bad English!
About travel equipment
Iceland doesn't have its name, which makes people feel cold. The best tourism season in Iceland is from May to September, with an average temperature of about 10 degrees and a maximum temperature of 24 degrees, which is generally the thickest. In the Icelandic winter with an average temperature of - 2 degrees, Reykjavik, the capital, is almost the warmest place in Iceland. We went to Finland / Iceland / Sweden in March. The temperature is almost the same. Sweden has a slightly warmer quarter. If you plan to take the aurora at night, you should wear thick enough to keep warm and windproof. You should wear a mask and a hat to cover your ears. Your shoes are waterproof and warm. The thicker your socks are, the better. If your feet are still cold, you should put on as many socks as possible. ▲ clothes (plush warm coat + cashmere sweater + Down Vest + waterproof down jacket or stormsuit), stormsuit is very important, and it is the kind with thin down inside, waterproof, windproof and warm.
In addition, windproof fur coat, plush and cotton coat and thick Cape are suitable for taking beautiful photos
If you like to wear skirt, you must wear thickened "bare leg artifact", which is sold on Taobao. Search for it yourself! I rely on it to wear the skirt all the way. Socks (wool socks / thick cotton socks can be worn as thick as they are.) The shoes (waterproof snow boots + climbing boots) must be waterproof / antiskid / warm / fast dry. And we need to prepare two pairs of boots to change, in case of wet. This wolf claw climbing shoes are very awesome. When picking up the aerial camera, my whole foot was buried in the snow water, wet, and shoes could pour half a bottle of water, and put the heater next to the night, and the shoes dried up on the second day.
Earmuffs / Hats / face masks / waterproof gloves: it's best to thicken and add velvet. You must wear them, because Iceland is too windy and you have a headache. It's easy to freeze and numb if you don't wear them.
Warm baby: warm baby is very useful, although it's very heavy to put in the trunk. Stick body, hands and feet to keep warm, stick equipment and battery, not afraid of equipment battery freezing silly, stick aerial camera battery preheating fast. During the whole 17 days, the two of us brought nearly 30 bags of big warm baby and 20 bags of hand foot warm baby, and the last 10 bags were brought back. Hand and foot warm baby is very useful, not afraid of cold feet.
About Icelandic Blizzard and Aurora
The weather in Iceland is changeable, and there are many extreme weather such as heavy storms and snow. You must go to Iceland first http://en.vedur.is , download the Icelandic weather app, which has the forecast of snowstorm and aurora on that day. Especially in the changeable weather from October to next April, it is very dangerous to drive out in case of snowstorm, let alone scenic spots.
Icelandic weather query to see the weather of the day, the rapid situation. Different colors indicate different wind speeds. Especially in winter, if the wind speed is more than 10 meters per second, you will have a strong feeling. If the wind speed is more than 15 to 20 meters per second, you are advised not to go out.
Look at the aurora. In Iceland, whether in winter or summer, there is a possibility of encountering the aurora. The probability is higher in winter, but less in summer because of the longer day time. If you are lucky in Iceland, you may be able to see it in the window. If you are not lucky, you may not be able to see the aurora in the whole journey. When we went to Iceland to catch the aurora, we mainly depended on the weather. On the way, we met six Scottish grandparents. They saw the aurora only when they came to Iceland for the second time. And we met 4 times in 9 days (including 2 times driving to chase the light, 1 time not going because of the tiredness of the journey, and 1 time seeing it at the door of the accommodation), so the pursuit of the aurora is really unexpected. When we meet the skirt of enjoying the night's aurora dance, don't be depressed. Maybe a miracle will happen in the near future.
The aurora is not beautiful to the naked eye, you can only see the shape like fog, with light green, floating slowly in the air. Only when you use the camera for a long time can you see the shape and color of the multi terminal transformation. The more green the aurora is, the higher the probability of Aurora.
The easiest way to see the aurora is to ask the local people where they are most likely to see it when the weather is fine that night. Or with the help of http://en.vedur.is White area is the area where Aurora erupts. If you happen to be near the white area that night, take it. It's very likely to meet you.

But there are few tall buildings in Reykjavik. There are only a few streets in the center of the city. Colorful European style buildings are almost souvenirs and restaurants, as well as hidden B & B. many beautiful wall graffiti can be seen on the streets. How far is the city center from harlems church / Sun navigator /? Harper hall and Conference Center are very close.
Hallgr í mskirkja hallgr í s church is a landmark building in Reykjavik. It is named after the famous Icelandic writer hallgr í s in memory of his great contribution to Icelandic literature. The church has a novel shape, inspired by the organ. During the opening hours, you can take the elevator to the top floor to have a panoramic view of the capital. The statue in front of the church commemorates leifur eiriksson, the father of Iceland's independence.
S ó lfar, the sun navigator, is a sculpture like the skeleton of a Viking boat, which is located on the promenade on the North Sea coast of Reykjavik. It is an important symbol of this "smoke-free city" and a symbol of the Viking spirit in northern Europe.
D6. Singer Wadley National Park Þ Ingvellir National Park Geysir golden falls Gullfoss Þ Ingvellir National Park is the first National Park in Iceland. It was originally designed to protect the remains of Parliament, but later expanded to protect the natural landscape around the remains.

Gullfoss golden waterfall is a favorite waterfall group of Icelanders. The torrential water flows straight down from the wide canyons, forming numerous small waterfalls with a drop of more than 50 meters. It is grand and spectacular. The main reason to visit the golden waterfall is to see the weather. Under the sun, the water mist is misty, and the water drops will make a bright rainbow across the whole waterfall. The waterfall rendered by the sun is golden, so it is named "golden waterfall"（ In winter, the landscape trail is blocked by ice and snow, so you can only see from afar.)
