Arctic mood: The land of the Eagle

White tailed sea eagles were critically endangered in Iceland in the 1970s, because the farmers used poisonned baits to kill Arctic foxes. After the ban of Strychnine and hunting of the Eagles, the populations slowly recovered. Today a hundred of pairs nest on cliffs and islets along the western and northern coastlines of the country.

GM, I’m Phil Garcia, a French professional photographer living in the Westfjords of Iceland, the most remote region of the country. My images have been awarded in international photography competitions and major European nature photography festivals. I published several Fineart books about Iceland that have been sold over Europe. In the last years, I took part in the making of several documentaries and commercials, as a location manager, photographer or videographer. Last winter I filmed for one of the latest projects from the BBC (to be broadcasted next year).
