[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
The first time anyone sees Strokkur "hurl" (I've just read that this is the right term) you are soooo impressed!
The hot water and steam rises up to 35 meters (compare the hight to the people right behind it!).
Fortunately you can stay close by, coz the water cools down real quick in the cool air.

"Unfortunately" we had a bright and sunny day while we were there. As you can see the right hand side of the hurl is over exposed... I tried to correct it, but then the colors would become really unnatural. So all in all I left the image pretty much as it was.
I did correct the tilted background a little.

Hope you like this view... I most certainly do!!!
:-)
Cheers,
Anneke

WhopieWow...
That is what we called in Oil Business, a real 'BLAST OUT'.
Of in het Hollands een echte 'Spuiter'.
Very well captured, Anneke. The OE on the right, simply belongs to a shot like that, as you would seen it with your eyes aswell, when the sun is shining on it, so no any problem, it makes the picture more 'alive'.
Thanks for showing it.
Jan

Hi Anneke,
Very good shot,congratulation.
Ralf

Very nice photo Anneke, Good colour and exposure. To be honest though the frame doesn't work at all well, and I find the title at the top distracting and it doesn't do any credit to what is a good photo.

David

Hi Anneke,

beautiful colours,

It's a marvelous shot here Anneke, despite the OE, which could not have been helped at all if the sun was bright, right on the side! Thanks so much for the foot massage yesterday! I loved it!

...en daar is-tie dan....wat een spectakel Anneke.
Ja, je hebt het weer niet voor het kiezen - is het even mooi en dan past het weer niet bij de foto!
Prachtig, de achtergrond is erg mooi en dat stoom knal er met dat beetje OE gewoon lekker uit - genieten alweer.

Hoi Ennie,
Ja, die knalt er ff uit. Tja zonlicht, toe ik mijn plaatjes nam was het ook knetter helder, maar dat was in oktober en de intensiteit van de zon is dan blijkbaar minder. De foto is er niets minder indrukwekkend om!
Tot zondag, eis/ijs en weder dienende :-)

Hi Anneke,

Hahaha, your finger was trigger-happy here!
Yeah, quite some over-exposure, but it's an interesting photograph and you were there at the right moment!

Yes,I like it. Like fireworks at the top of the hurl. You have managed to keep some texture in the left side of the hurl -- very interesting. And keeping the people for scale is a good idea. TFS. K2

Hello Anneke


Beautiful look of this jet of water.
I found interesting that you tell me that her
he leaves very hot, but soon it cools. I thought
that it was long more to cool for the hot water.
But it is and it should be live an excellent show!
Congratulations, I adored to see that.

Bonjour Anneke,

Etonnant, stupéfiant, grandiose!
Ce geyser est vraiment surprenant!
Amitiés
Odile

Good picture which really captures the energy and power of this geyser. The over exposure can easily be forgiven, especially with such bright light and the dynamic white subject, and it doesn't detract from the picture.
Thanks for sharing
Mark

Inderdaad Anneke een betere titel had je dat niet kunnen geven!
