Iceland (Ísland)

Near the glacier of Drangajökull.

Due to its location on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, Iceland is very volcanically and geologically active; this identifies the landscape in various ways. The interior mainly consists of a plateau characterized by sand fields, mountains and glaciers, while many big glacial rivers stream to sea through the lowlands. Due to the Gulf Stream, Iceland has a temperate climate relative to its latitude, which provides habitable environment and nature.

I love big skys Christian and you certainly have captured one here. Good POV with fantastic BG and interestingly rendered foreground with the stream and grasses. Well done.

One thing to consider before you resize you picture for Trek is to use a noise reducing tool like Neat Image. There is a hint of noise in your sky. Nothing to worry too much about.

Very nice landscape image Christian.
Great perspective shot with the stream leading the eye in to the scene all the way up to the beautiful sky with the dramatic darkclouds in it.
Thanks for sharing.
Kind regards, Harry

Hej Christian
Du får den på dansk, lettere (for mig). Flot foto, brilliant komp. og helt fantastiske farver, mange komplimenter herfra.
Mange hilsener
Jens.

What a wonderful shot, Christian. The compo is excellent and well-focused for clarity, so necessary in the sky you captured here. The version you posted is stupendous. The one you didn't seemed like 'false color,' but then again, maybe it's the other way around! ;)

Excellent HDR Christian! I love the surreal effect. Very good POV and composition. TFS

Hi Christian:Excellent photo of a bleak landscape, I think the high contrast in the photo works well here, the dramatic sky sense of perspective is amazing here ..... I love this one .....Roman;0)
