We spent three nights near the Jokulsarlon Glacier Lagoon. The ice breaks off the glacier into thelagoon and floats out to the ocean through a canal and then winds up on theblack beach. As you can see, thephotographic possibilities are endless and it is constantly changing. What you saw and photographed in the eveningis not what is there in the morning. Ihad to dig deep in the bag of photographic skills to get the images I waslooking for and I am extremely pleased with the results.
We would photograph from about 7pm to 11pm, drive an hour back to thehotel, sleep for 2 hours and drive back to photograph the morning light from4am to 7am. It was a little brutal but I am so glad we did it. See the photo ofthe beach which shows the overall look and the scale of the ice against thepeople.
Our next location is Vik, Iceland where we will photograph Puffins and theHighlands. The countryside is simplyamazing and I am working on trying to capture this. Stay tuned.
