This image looks like a black and white picture, but it is really developed in color. In the black desert in the Icelandic highlands there are at best a few red craters, but I didn’t have any of them in the … read more or write a comment …
Being on the road in the Icelandic highlands in the rain doesn’t offer the wide views of the landscape, but it unfolds a fantastic depth effect, especially in deserts without any tree vegetation. This picture almost looks like a black … read more or write a comment …
Rain, water and a moss-covered mountain ridge. A great and at the same time dramatic atmosphere when for a short moment the sun came out and gave me the right light on the ridge.
In the foreground, three red craters rising from a black ash/lava landscape, and in the background, a mighty highland river running along in front of moss-covered mountains. This is the Icelandic highlands in its purest form. Especially when a blanket … read more or write a comment …
