The Land of Ice & Fire

Probably the closest thing you get to a sunset in Iceland in summer is something like this image, which combines nicely with the blue splendor of Jökulsárlón. I was especially intrigued by the black & blue ice contrasting with the warm sky.

Let me know what you think!

I really like the interesting shapes and tones in the fore ground.

Tremendous depth here created by the clarity of the foreground and the subdued background. The different tones even make it more so. Beautiful image of a frozen landscape. Nice work Jorne.

I love the contrast of light and dark areas Jorne. Looks like an amazing place.

Nix collection of lines, colors and shapes captured here. I prefer a slight crop off the top just below the cloud in the ULC, but this works as presented too.

I Like the contrast between the front and back ground layers. I can't say The background holds my interest much though. I love the foreground!!!!

Every pictures from here astounds me. The abstractness of the foreground is just wonderful. The sky, IMO, intrudes a bit too much reality here.

Fascinating terrain, otherworldly. The blue/black is great.
