A fantastic image !
This is one of my favorite, Nature Photographs of yours.

I love how you have presented this more like a sculpture, rather than just a random chunk of ice.
It's as if Nature's art is behind red ropes at a gallery, we yearn to touch and feel the cold wet of its glistening surface, but can't quite reach. All we can do, is gaze into the aqua blue depths and admire its inherent beauty.

Fascinating and beautiful work .
Congratulations on creating such a fine piece of art, and on the many, well-deserved awards !

Behind The Lens

Location

I've taken this photo in Iceland. I'm mainly a portrait photographer, but I decided to give landscape photography a go while I was in Iceland.

Time

This was taken in December when there is only 4 hours day light, and because the sun is low in the horizon, that 4 hours actually 4 hours golden light .

Lighting

Golden hour light

Equipment

Canon 5d Mark III. Tamron 24-70mm lens

Inspiration

Iceland is the paradise for landscape photographers. When I saw this breathtaking scenery of diamond beach with the beautiful sunset in the background i thought it was time for landscape photography and nothing could stop me from taking some pictures...not even the very cold strong wind.

Editing

I used curves to bring down highlights and bring up shadows.

In my camera bag

Canon 135mm 50mm, tamron 24-70mm and a helios lens.

Feedback
