Challenge: Free Study 2012-11 (Advanced Editing VII)
Collection: Landscapes
Camera: Canon EOS-5D Mark III
Lens: Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8 L USM II
Location: Northern Iceland
Date: Nov 24, 2012
Date Uploaded: Nov 24, 2012

 I don't normally shoot landscapes and truth be told, like many who prefer people-focussed images, I get frustrated with their domination of the front page on free studies.

But - I do know they are really hard to do well and given I have spent half of November in Iceland I thought it would be a shame not to give it a go.

I've tried to takes heed of the advice Richard Hahn was kind enough to give me a little while ago.

Let's see how it does!

The blue tones really convey the coolness of the scene. The crispness and clarity are perfect.

I love how the glow of the sun casts warmth into a frigid environment. Spectacular.
