Great shot! My only (slight) critique is that I would have liked a wee bit less at the bottom and more on the top.
I have only once been to this site. It was a number of years ago and in terrible weather, but through the mist and rain I felt it in my bones that it was/is an incredible place. Since then it seems to have been discovered by the photographic masses.
I will be returning to Iceland this summer. I have read reports that the farmer who owns the land through which the road to this site leads is now asking entry fees. What was the situation when you were there?...Show more →
Thank you for your advice. I will see if I can play with the crop a bit. I do not want to lose the tidepool on the lower right.
Funny you mention the farmer. We were accosted by him as we turned down the road and walked out onto the beach. He wanted money per person for access to his road. Our photographic guide got into a bit of a heated discussion with the farmer and refused to pay. It seems the farmer is actually paid by the government to maintain the road. Our guide, an Icelandic photographer, did not feel we should have to pay since the farmer is already subsidized by the government. The farmer called the police!! Much debate ensued. I suspect this issue will be solved in the Icelandic courts. Hopefully before you return.
