    THIS MONTH’S WINNER

    ICY MYSTERY

    This image is from Cameron Hanks’ visit to Iceland. He said, “I had heard of this magical beach [Diamond Beach] in which glacial ice was washed out to sea only to be brought back to shore with the incoming tide. The combination of crystal clear and sometimes deep blues in the glacial ice on the jet black volcanic sand beach is something I will never forget.”

    This is an impressive image with a sense of mystery regarding scale, as that ice in the foreground could be two inches high or six foot - we don’t know, but as a viewer it is intriguing to look at as a result. A longer exposure would have been nice, but then it is a matter of how fast things - including the ice - are moving.
