ISLAND SAGA III by phigun

Island Saga III 2015 This was easily one of the most amazing and colorful sunsets I have ever whitnessed during my travels and one of those super rare and special moments as a landscape photographer. This sunset highlights the ridiculously beautiful waterfall Seljalandsfoss located in south Iceland right on the ringroad. I camped right across the street and we just had lunch and enjoyed the evening as this sunset sets in, I quickly grapped my tripod and my filters and ran to the waterfall. I fired about 100 shots one after another, in between I also captured some video material. I was quite excited and scared at the same time to mess this shot because this was a one of a kind oportunity and only the second perfect sunset overall during my 11 day roadtrip.

Island Saga I by phigun

Island Saga I, 2015 For sure I also captured some of these famous spots too but for me it was more about trying to explore and find places that are not overvisited by us photographers these days. I loved this beautiful calm and reduced sunset scene in the middle of nowhere on one smaller road in northern iceland. i was just looking for a place to sleep at around 11'o clock as I found myself jumping out the car trying to capture this lovely little moment.

Mirroring the Grandeur by TrevorAnderson

This is another perspective of Rainier that I caught a couple years back. My recent trips have been more hiking oriented than photo oriented, partly due to the hazy skies presented by all of the wildfires; this has provided a good opportunity to go through some older folders. via 500px http://bit.ly/1UtAWuK

Unfurled by BryanSwan

Finally found some really interesting False Hellebore while doing some scouting in Mount Rainier National Park last week. Scout location #1 turned out to be pretty good, but I fell over a log, got a baseball-sized bruise on the back of my calf which gave me a limp for 3 days, scraped my arm all to hell, and then the light sucked on top of that. Location #2 was a no go because the brush was too thick, and I couldn't manage to drag myself to intended location #3 because of said injury aquired at location #1. And even though the sunset wasn't bad (for once), I couldn't come away with anything at all I liked at Reflection Lakes...so this ended up being my keeper shot for the day. via 500px http://bit.ly/1CB6jR1
