A striking landscape with lots of great colors and textures! The lone hiker really provides a sense of scale. Very nice job with the exposure also (lots of detail and textures in the white snow). I can see why it’s a favorite of yours. Sure hope your wrist heals up quickly and properly so you can get back to it!
Marylynne, this is a gorgeous “grand intimate” landscape. The lone hiker is a nice touch, it really reinforces the massive scale of the landscape here. I love the colors of the landscape here, they work so well with the white snow. It’s been 8 years since I made my only trip to Iceland, this makes me consider a return trip. Very nicely done…
This is a fantastic image, and the inclusion of the tiny bridge and hiker just puts it over the top. It almost looks like it was taken from an airplane, but if not, a very tall mountain. Lovely colors and comp. The steam adds so much.
Thanks! Kathy: it’s an adjacent ridge. You have to hike down to cross the river and climb the mountains on the other side. It was the highlight of my trip to Iceland.
