The F95 rolls down the Breiðdalur valley on its way past Þorgrímsstaðir farm in East Iceland.
Very wet day and interesting driving conditions over the pass behind us.
The colour frame always interested me but finally converting it to mono produced the goods.

Stranded icebergs on the beach at Jökulsárlón in East Iceland.
Posted a similar, colour version of this section of the beach a week or so ago. It was quite an arm wrestle between them but this one worked just that little bit better in mono.
This image dates from September 2015 on our first trip to the magical isle. I was a lot more instinctive with framing back then but my editing skills were not so much. Arguably those skills have improved but I now I feel I'm way over-thinking compositions and technical stuff!
Never mind, all part of the process I guess! :-)

One more indulgence from the 2015 archive...
Just after dinner in the last of the Blue Hour, the cosmic dance begins.
The Norðurljós or Aurora Borealis over Drangshlíðarfjall (476m) shot from the Skógafoss Hotel carpark...
There are better frames of the curtain (left of the peak) that flared a lot more after this shot but I liked those strong ribbons to the north.
Skógafoss waterfall itself is off to the right somewhere but the eastern ramparts of the Eyjafjallajökull ice cap are just visible under that rightmost ribbon.

Eyjafjörður in North Iceland.
English landscape photographer, Fay Godwin (17/03/31 - 27/05/05) had a big impact on my love of clouds in black and white.
Blowing like stink.

Inside the Harpa Concert Hall and Conference Centre, Reykjavík, Iceland.
Harpa was designed by Danish firm Henning Larsen Architects in co-operation with Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson.
The building was inspired by Iceland's columnar basalt landscape and by the colour of old ice I suspect. The structure consists of a steel framework clad with geometric shaped glass panels of different colours.
The last (for now) of my 2015 archive revisits and just like a slide, upside down and back to front ;)
