Plan 8. Sun and Moon rising aligned with the Giant and the Witch, Faroe Islands
During the PhotoPills Expedition to the Faroe Islands, I came with the idea of photographing the Sun (and the Moon) aligned with Risin og Kellingin (the Giant and the Witch), two amazing sea stacks. What do you think?
Is it possible? Will it happen? Let’s figure it out! Let’s plan the two photos with PhotoPills!
