Each of us has places and views to come back to. For me, this is the one that I am never tired of. Not ever. This is my place because it makes me feel alive, challenged and fulfilled. And I don’t only mean accomplished as a photographer, but also complete as a human. The nature in its purest form brings the realization how important it is to keep such places intact. The destinations like this one, the Auyuittuq National Park on Baffin Island, Canada are world’s natural treasures. There are not many that were able to experience such locations, but all that did so came back changed. I am going there again at the end of the summer of 2017.
I hope this photo is able to showcase the full beauty of that area.
You captured the place with the feel that usually only a skilled painter could do. Such a nice image.
I know it's complicated to translate the mind's eye to a camera image, but I'm curious how your image would appear if somewhat more dynamic range--slightly--were given to the richness of the colors in the lower half of the image. It's the kind of challenge tackled by impressionists by speckling--stronger versions of the subdued variations in the rock and vegetation in your image. Those are just my corny wonderings, maybe better described as tamperings.....
