🦜 Látrabjarg Cliff, Iceland — Puffins at the Edge of the World
At the very western tip of Iceland’s Westfjords, where the land finally runs out and the great basalt cliffs of Látrabjarg drop fourteen kilometres along the coastline and five hundred metres sheer into the cold grey waters of the North Atlantic, there is a place that feels genuinely like the edge of the world — the westernmost point in Europe, a place of extraordinary, vertiginous drama where the sky and the sea and the rock come together in a way that is unlike anything else on the planet. And it is here, on these extraordinary cliffs, that one of the world’s greatest concentrations of Atlantic puffins makes its summer home — millions of birds nesting in burrows in the clifftop turf, launching themselves into the Atlantic wind with a cheerful recklessness that seems entirely at odds with the scale and the drama of the landscape around them. One of the highlights from a road trip around Iceland was photographing these charismatic fellas — they are almost robotic in their movements, and it was great to sit for a while and just watch them go about their day at the very edge of Europe, the vast Atlantic stretching away to the horizon behind them, the wind coming in off the sea with a force and a freshness that makes you feel more alive than almost anywhere else on earth. This wildlife photography print captures that extraordinary encounter with remarkable intimacy — a piece of wall art that brings the full, vivid, joyful character of the Látrabjarg puffins into any room, and a home decor statement and nature artwork that is bold, atmospheric, and deeply evocative of one of the most extraordinary wildlife spectacles in the world.
