Ice Boulder Field - Jökulsárlón, Iceland

    Newer Older

    This must be my favorite place and time to photograph. Jökulsárlón in winter is a magical place when conditions are right. A maze of frozen colorful ice sculptures which changes each time you are there. Here the blue light after sunset enhanced the deep blue color of the icebergs.

    The endless rain here in Iceland now has forced me to go digging in the archives. It is good to do this at least once a year because you generally look at your images differently months after they where shot since the positive experience of the trip and the photo shooting has faded away.

    If you have not seen it yet I wrote a blog post about this frozen world earlier this year: Frozen World

      Hi, i am an Art Director for `Howards and Caz`s Gallery` and would be very honoured if you would consider posting your stunning photo into the Gallery.
      This Gallery is so different than anything flickr has done before, as it is a tough Gallery to belong to, and now the bar has raised to Platinum level, and only the best will be accepted, and it is my opinion that this wonderful piece here belongs with us ……. I hope you will consider posting your beautiful photo in, as i feel it has the standard required to be a part of this Gallery......Kind regards..Caz (AD)
