Oggi, 22 Dicembre 2015, è il giorno più corto dell'anno in islanda. Il sole sorge alle 11.30 per tramontare verso le 15. Esso non si alza mai oltre pochi gradi sull'orizzonte. nei prossimi giorni, molto lentamente, la luce comincerà a illuminare nuovamente le fredde regioni subartiche.

This shot is just fabulous !!!
I like the composition with the diagonal running from the left door and gaze at the mountains rising from the first floor all balanced by the curve of the shore to the right with a beautiful reflection.
The PP for me is very accurate and refined, the colors super !!
Compliments!

9 or pieces of ice stranded in the lagoon of jokursalon, but perhaps in this period are irraggiungibili.Sono sure you'd be able to appreciate it to us in the best way, with simplicity, elegance, sensitivity and seriousness that always accompany you in your production .

The shot itself is nice, but I agree with the Commissioner as regards the composition: the bush in the foreground, in the center of the frame ... "shoot" a little '...
Excellent colors.

Thank you so much for the comments and observations!

Regarding the composition of this photo:
It states that this is an area I'd photographed up to 'exhaustion. And '"manned" by photographers practically 365 days a year non-stop, day and night. When they arrive the buses of the workshops you can be found in the dunes tens of people wandering in search of a composition: Every corner is devastated by fingerprints and traces that are in addition to those of the previous days.

In the morning when I took this photo because I had gone to Vestrahorn I knew to find a white landscape snow from the night before. I hoped moreover that the impassable road would discourage others from going there that morning.

I arrived in the area and withTo my delight and surprise, I realized I was right. Proceeding with reduced I was able to mark trails in soft snow up to the dune area.
The sky was cloudless and the landscape appeared candidly cloaked in snow. After I allowed ten minutes of contemplation, listening to the sound of the ocean in complete solitude, I went to make my image, without haste.

My feeling, going in the snow, was to sully the purity of the white landscape. I imposed on myself so not to go into the dunes and to leave the least trace possible.
I moved to this isolated bush, I knew, with the desire to compose a "clean". An image that transmits the sensation of "purity" of that morning, and while he could recountand that place the essence of which are those mountains, almost mirror, and dunes that form the backdrop.

Geometrically the bush was placed in position almost central, the line of wind-blown sand from the edge at the bottom left. The visual weight of the bush and the dune, with their teardrop shape, balances the image leaving a minimum of eyestrain. The bush is also located at the lowest point of the crest of the mountains, so as to further balance the composition. It 'been paid care not to overlap any item (which is absolutely not easy in that place) and dunes in the background are the "crown" to the big bush in the foreground.

This is more or less the analysis of my composition. It works or not? In my opinion it is, according to others, according to othersNo. In my opinion it is truly impossible to look for absolute objectivity in the composition of an image. There are basic rules that must obviously be followed, as well as the habits that are pleasing to most of us, but there is always a margin of subjectivity.

For me a picture of nature work if transmits emotion. If we focus on geometric speeches there is something wrong in the image itself, in the preparation of the viewer or both.

X Simone:

The idyll of the morning unfortunately did not last long: a few minutes after taking this photo the self-styled "owner" of this area came with his SUV on the beach and then up the dunes verso me, devastating everything. He had come to ask the 600 crowns that asks all photographers with the aim of "preserving nature".

Unfortunately this is Iceland today. Everything is sold and it seems that the respect and the desire for contemplation of nature is no longer here. Who provides tourism services bay only to make money, who seems to be interested in getting "selfie" under the Northern or in a cave of ice to put then on social media. I am agreeing to all this effort trying to stop wondering what kind of world we live.

Nell 'accompany people to photograph here I am trying to move with very small groups. If you are with a colleague is always trying to divide into two, as we have always done with Fortunato, for example.
The goal is to convey the need & agrAve; absolute to find a connection with the place before pulling out the camera. Obviously those who come here in Iceland the first time want to photograph certain landscapes, and this is natural and understandable. But maybe you can walk and run from the mark "classic" without losing much of the beauty of the place but gaining an intimacy that, to me, is priceless.

I am going back to my photography I'm obviously trying to explore areas off the beaten track. Let's say that winter is not the ideal season, whereas it is impossible to move in many areas and the very low light.
Besides the Icelandic landscape, as beautiful, it does not have the same variety of the landscapes to which we are accustomed. It will not be so easy to tell un'Islanda "new" or "amazing"but it will be possible to return, with time and patience, a personal view of this beautiful nature.

I do not want, however, at the time, to share certain things. There is too much pressure today on certain territories and too many people who want to become "Frans Lanting de noatri" within two weeks. There will be time and opportunity to show certain things .. and maybe the internet could not be in a suitable place.

Thanks again for the inspiration and a warm greeting!
