Iceland Day 6 - Black Ice - a photo on Flickriver

Iceland Day 6 - Black Ice

            The last one and probably my favourite of Diamond Beach, taken at the start of blue hour. Maybe not as powerful as the first two, but I think this has a more interesting composition and subject. I’m not sure why only some pieces of ice get this dark, but this one definitely caught my attention. The waving sea snaked its way between the large chunks of ice, which seemed to struggle to hold their position. I tried to show this little battle of the elements with a view on the streaming water and a slightly longer exposure. To witness and feel the energy of this place was so impressive and as much as I would like to share some of this sensation, I believe you can only truly experience this by being there, feeling the cold of the pieces ice when you lay your hands on them while you hear the waves breaking over and over again. A bit overwhelmed of this whole day we stepped in the car and drove back to our cabin in Höfn, grabbed a cold beer and let the excitement slowly give way for exhaustion. And so our most spectacular day so far was coming to an end, or was it…? 

Thanks for having a look! All faves and comments are highly appreciated!
