🦜 Iceland’s Puffins — Charismatic Seabirds Captured on an Icelandic Road Trip
One of the great joys of travelling Iceland by road — of taking the time to stop, to look, and to wait — is the moment when you find yourself sitting quietly on a clifftop or a grassy headland somewhere on the Icelandic coast, watching a colony of Atlantic puffins go about their extraordinary, industrious, endlessly entertaining daily lives. These are birds that seem to have been designed by someone with a very particular sense of humour — their bold black and white plumage, their extraordinary multicoloured beaks, and their almost mechanical, robotic quality of movement giving them a character and a presence that is unlike any other seabird in the world, and that makes them one of the most compelling and most photographed wildlife subjects in all of Iceland. 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, their comings and goings, their landings and take-offs, their interactions with each other, all conducted with a seriousness and a purposefulness that is both deeply funny and deeply moving. This wildlife photography print captures that quality with extraordinary intimacy and precision — a piece of wall art that brings the full, vivid, extraordinary character of the Icelandic puffin into any room, and a home decor statement and nature artwork that is bold, joyful, and deeply evocative of the wild and beautiful coastlines of Iceland.
