January 26, 2020 — The Thórbergur Center, Hali Country Hotel, South Coast, Iceland Shot a few minutes after the image in the last post. Looking a bit further east. Unlike the last image, not a lot of post-processing work here. Despite its monochromatic appearance, this is a color photograph. Stay tuned… (Canon G5X II. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)
January 26, 2020 — The Thórbergur Center, Hali Country Hotel, South Coast, Iceland As we returned to our hotel and eatery after a morning shoot, she and I gaped gasping at the gray glory of the sky. While the others ducked into their warm and dry rooms, we got as close as we could to the edge of a sharp slope that ended at the edge of a partially frozen lagoon. Not wanting to take […]

January 30, 2019 — Skógafoss, South Coast, Iceland Here’s the original frame from which the last post’s image was cropped. My Muse and I have had quite a discussion as to which we prefer. We invite you to weigh in. (Nikon D850, Nikon 24-120mm f/4G VR. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)
January 30, 2019 — Skógafoss, South Coast, Iceland This is a dramatic sixty-meter waterfall (foss), so naturally I show just a bit of the river and the bottom of the falls. I did put on my wellies for this one. (Nikon D850, Nikon 24-120mm f/4G VR. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)
January 29, 2020 —Fjallsárlón Glacial Lake, Iceland A sole iceberg puppy floating on the near mirror surface of this lake at the south end of the glacier Vatnajökull. Pretty small for an iceberg but pretty big for a pup. About the size of a Saint Bernard and I’m sure a lot heavier. (Nikon D850, Tamron 100–400mm f/4.5–6.3 Di VC USD.

January 27, 2020 — Jökulsárlón, South Coast, Iceland What was the photographer ruminating on while creating such an image — made of two different treatments of one shot combined with part of another shot? What might he think? It could be a question of two ages: Would JMW Turner have liked Pink Floyd? Discuss. I’m verklempt. PS: Not looking good for Northern Lights tonight. Kp Index is 1. (Nikon D850, Nikon 24-120mm f/4G VR. RAW processing […]
January 26, 2020 — Reynisfjara Viewpoint, South Coast, Iceland Can I go anywhere near an ocean without doing a seascape horizon? No. I can’t. It’s in my DNA. And the thing is, Iceland has lots of ocean. (Nikon D850, Nikon 24-120mm f/4G VR. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.) More seascape horizons: www.amagaphoto.com
January 26, 2020 —Black Sand Beach, Vik, Iceland The North Atlantic shows no mercy because it has no mercy. (Nikon D850, Tamron 100–400mm f/4.5–6.3 Di VC USD G2. Post-processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)
January 26, 2020 — Reynisfjara (Black Sand) Beach, Iceland It was a dark and stormy morning. The wind-whipped weather was a fierce opponent. The barely risen sun cowered behind the clouds. Photographer and camera were covered in sleet and snow. This emerged from the mist. From this angle, most photographs of this scene appear to show two sea stacks. Actually, in those shots the one on the left (the one you see here) appears to […]

Dec 30, 2019 — Sonoma County Coast What a difference a crop makes. (This isn’t quite monochrome. There’s subtle color here, but WP — WordPress — has all but WiPed is out.) (Nikon D500, Nikon 200-500mm f/5.6E ED VR zoom. RAW processing in DxO PhotoLab 3.1; Editing in Adobe Photoshop.)
