Golden Eystrahorn
Eystrahorn
by Pete Rowbottom

This was my second visit to this place, and I've had great light on both occasions, the last time the clouds covered the top 1/4 of the mountains so although the sky was quite plain on this visit is was great to actually get to see the jagged tops of the mountain range.

The light stayed good for quite a while here allowing for plenty of shooting opportunities, I've ended up going with a 5 shot panorama here to get a wider scene and include more foreground as that was also bathed in the golden light that was making the mountains really glow with life.

Lots more images from this trip can be found on my website here - updating regularly

Eystrahorn
by Pete Rowbottom

An image from last year taken at Estrahorn in the far South East of Iceland, it's very remote out here and feels it too.

I've not taken anything recently that I'm happy to upload on here and I'm not uploading possibly below par images just for the sake of it, so I'll continue to find shots from the archive until (hopefully) I get something worth posting soon...

This was shot at Sunset with the low sun illuminating the fantastic and dramatic form of the Eystrahorn, this is shot a lot less than it more famous neighbour at Vestrahorn.

There is a headland here that basically has 2 beaches either side, the beach to the East had enormous breakers coming pounding in, which were great to shoot but the sunlight was far more prominent on this side hitting the gnarly tops.
