[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I and other persons of a group of photographers this lady was member of were taking photos around ...We found ourselves at the same place at the same time in view of this stark and desolate landscape in this part of northeastern Iceland . One thing i noticed right away is that they were more interested to what the ground featured than the wonderfully bare-rounded hills stretching away in the distance . They were mostly interested by what the ground offered as macro opportunities, that is ! I was also impressed by their photographic equipment as seen here ! Huge cameras ! I watched them crouched down almost face against the ground to get their shots ,i made a few pictures of them as a group and individually while they were having it with the tiny plants growing out of the tussock .
I chose B&W for this photo because the subdued colours of the landscape and neutral clothes of my subject ,
1/200, iso 80, f/4.5 , curves adj ,sharpened,
Thanks for viewing,

HI Carol
The B&W brought out great details to all this weedy countryside. Your subject stands out well in the composition, and I like the sharp contrast between the mountains and the sky.
Dot

A typical shooting over shooting shot. But hei, it's creatiove nonetheless. Love the colour and the clarity too. WELL DONE!

Bonjour Carol.

J'aime beaucoup la composition avec ces courbes de collines au loin accompagnées de la courbe finissant le terrain en avant plan. Très beau contraste entre cette portion hirsute de terrain et l'apparente douceur des collines.

Amicalement

Carol, This is such a superb shot. As you well say the mountains in the background are so rythmical, and the tonality of our image is magnificent.I am glad for this BW, where you can see all the shades of gray.
Congratulations
