Photographer Mads Peter Iversen has visited Vestrahorn, also known as Stokksnes, in Iceland over 10 times. That doesn't mean he's bored of the popular location, however, as he says it's unique each time he visits. We join him on his latest visit to the area in the video below.

Why is the location so popular and why does Iversen keep returning? As we can see in 4K below, it's easy to see the appeal. Jagged mountains, a lovely foreground, ocean and constantly changing light make for a landscape photographer's paradise. It's rough and beautiful at the same time.

"This place is just massively epic," Iversen says. That's not an overstatement whatsoever. Sit back, relax and enjoy some beautiful scenery in his video below. Per usual, he also shares insights into his artistic process.
