Icelandic Cascade Close-up

2017-07-19 By Roger Edwards

Some scenes becomes so mesmerizing, melodious to multiple senses, that shooting a photo becomes an afterthought amidst the appreciative immersion.  Fortunately, this portion of a famous western Icelandic waterfall wasn’t going anywhere, and a thought to compose the scene eventually sprouted from the intoxicating fog of wonderment.  Kirkjufellsfoss is widely renowned as one of the world’s most spectacular cascades, justifiably, as wide-angle views attest.  Still, any grand landscape is worth a deeper, deliberate inspection, and that often turns up parts nearly as amazing as their sums in the whole. 1 WSW Grundarfjordur, Iceland (12 Aug 14) Looking NNW 64.926, -23.3117

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story.
