Midnight Sun Iceland is a short time-lapse film captured during the Icelandic Midnight Sun in June 2011.

For 17 days Michael Levy travelled solo around the entire island, shooting film nearly 24 hours, sleeping in the car, and eating whenever. He captured 38,000 images, travelled some 2900 miles, and saw some of the most amazing and indescribable landscapes on the planet. “Iceland is absolutely one of the most beautiful and unusual places you could ever imagine. Especially during the Midnight Sun when the quality of light hitting the landscape is spectacular,” Michael said. “Iceland is a landscape photographer’s paradise and playground, and should be number 1 on every photographers must visit list. During the Midnight Sun, Iceland is in sort of a permanent state of sunset.”During the Arctic summer, sunset is at midnight and sunrise at 3 a.m. providing as much as 6 hours daily of Golden light. Once the sun sets it wouldn’t even get dark enough for the stars to come out, and they don’t start to reappear until August,” Michael concluded.
