A Bit of Time to Catch Up on Processing etc

 I have been trying to use the Christmas break to catch up on adding galleries to my website, which replaced my previous long-standing one about 6 months ago. I am making slow but steady progress, the latest addition being some colour images from a trip in 2017 to Iceland. A good antidote to some of our recent very drab grey days!!

Iceland in Monochrome

I have at last finished a Gallery of images from our February visit to Iceland with 30 monochrome conversions. Here are a few of them - shown at smaller size than usual as they are pretty rough on the 'edges' - need tidying up or reprocessing in some cases before printing. Full gallery at www.pin-sharp.co.uk

Fulmars at Skogafoss and the Bird Out-Takes

On a few occasions, I regretted not having a long enough lens with me to do justice to the birds in their surroundings. The Fulmars were spectacular as they flew across the front of the waterfall (taken in the rain!!). Lots of Snow Buntings enjoying scraps. My favourite image is the last one but unfortunately a grabbed shot and not quite fast enough shutterspeed to capture the Oystercatchers flock - maybe a soft print on soft paper might work?

Iceland as The Best Backdrop for Selfies and Portraits

For most tourists these days visiting the sites is mainly to act as a backdrop for their 'Selfie' or their antics.

Black Sands Iceland

On our journey back to Reykjavik, we stopped a couple of times on the volcanic plains to photograph the grasses and other vegetation that cling to life there. Quick edits but gives an idea of the scenes - the weather was sombre, grey and rainy, to go with the surroundings

Jokulsarlon Moonset and Sunrise

Final images from the Glacier lagoon and beach. Beautiful lighting to finish our stay in the area - just the journey back and Reykjavik day to follow!!

Sunset on Jokulsarlon Beach

Apologies for a superfluity of iceberg images (only a dawn session to go!). Also a monochrome image has crept in where adjusting the colour image proved very difficult. With the long exposures, the movement of the ice lumps in the surf added another element as they spun around.
