This is a picture from our last Iceland trip in September. The light was subtle and lateral almost the whole day .. And the Skaftafell area unveils a crazy land ( floor ? ground ? ) with all the mixed colors .
'Multiplicity' is another work of yours that I absolutely adore.
The use of the foreground to emphasise the glorious alpine flora has been executed in an amazing fashion: each bloom seems so precise and easily discerned, you could almost fool yourself into believing that they alone are the subject in this photograph - the flowers, the soft crumpled plain where there must be hidden streams, pulling crinkles in the land... It's a very peaceful setting, and vibrantly coloured.
Then; then the mountains in the background - the shadows that cause those sharp definition of the ridges and rifts in the faces of the mountains give that extra bit of character to them; they pull attention in, and combined with the sharp contrast of the earth against the snow in the right-hand side of the photograph really help balance for the further back paleness of the mountains on the left.
Overall, I think this image works really well in in portrait format - it allows the use of thirds to be particularly effective in making sure the eye travels around the image in such a fashion that nothing seems overdone or underfocused, and the colours seen in this are beautiful, which really adds a lot to it.
