A rather desperate Star Trek scene shot at the Blue Lagoon Photo: Ken Lin and Jennifer Puno

US art director Ken Lin went to Iceland with his friends, dressed in Star Trek outfits and created a series of pretty cool looking sci-fi photographs. Lin's photos were discovered by website Stuck in Iceland who kindly allowed us to publish them. 

"We here at Stuck in Iceland are fortunate enough to have built up a community on Google+ (of all places!) that sometimes yields a treasure trove of cool stuff. The other day somebody posted a pretty hilarious video posted on YouTube titled “Star Trek Into Iceland Photo Series Outtakes”  We of course went into full ´Liam Neeson mode´ and tracked down the guy responsible for it. As it turns out his name is Ken Lin and he works as a Freelance CD/Art Director in the US. The outtakes in the Youtube video are from the Star Trek Photo Series by Ken and a few of his buddies that revolved around them dressing into Star Trek outfits and creating Star Trek photography series in cool locations. The photos from the series were created in California and Iceland. Ken retouched the photos to give them epic sci-fi effects and ambience. "

The Star Trek photos from Iceland feature Ken and his friend Jennifer Puno (who incidentally is the co-founder of the rather cool start-up Made With Map). The locations of the pictures in Iceland include Hellisheidarvirkjun Power Station, at Hallgrimskirkja church in Reykjavik, the Blue Lagoon, at the Douglas C-47 wreck at Sólheimasandur, at Svartifoss waterfall in the Vatnajokull National Park, at “Kerið” at Grimsnes in the South of Iceland and at the Jökulsarlon Glacial Lagoon.

Stranded on an alien planet called Iceland.

Things get desperate at Sólheimasandur.

Take that Klingon scum!
