You can disagree if you want, but there is way more subject matter to choose from in Iceland. You named basically two things. Wildlife and icebergs/snowy landscapes. That's why I said the OP needs to decide where their interest lies. Iceland will give you scenic, wildlife, people and color. I did say Antarctica was spectacular and it is, but it is also limited. My friend has been to both and his images are outstanding from both places, but the Iceland images are way more varied in subject matter.Overread wrote:

I'll disagree with you on that one. Plenty of photo ops down there. First off: migration of penguins in Antarctica. Second: huge ice burgs. Third: Seals and birds
