Photographer’s Note
Català:
Després d'uns quants mesos de sequera he decidit tornar a compartir algunes de les meves imatges a Trekearth.
Al llarg de les properes setmanes penjaré algunes imatges captades a Islàndia durant el Juliol i Agost del 2006.
Aquí vaig estrenar la meva càmera Nikon D-70
Cascada Gulfoss
Cascada Gulfoss. Potser es tracta de la cascada més famosa d'Islàndia. Aquesta illa és el país de les cascades, dels ocells, els volcans...tot está ple i envoltat de natura. Espero i desitjo que la ma de l'home no espatlli aquest petit paradís de gel, foc, aire i aigua.
English:
Some months after i've decided to share again with Trekearth users some of my pictures.
In the next weeks i'm gonna upload some pictures i took in Iceland between July and August 2006.
I hope you like it!
Gulfoss Waterfall. Maybe the most famous waterfall in Iceland. Iceland is the country of the waterfalls, the birds, the volcanoes... everywhere is full of nature! I hope this don't change in the next years.

Really well composed photo. It is a shame the person in the foreground is obviously posing but this is a small complain regarding a very strong image.

Hi Ricard
Enhorabuena por esta fantastica foto, con gran fuerza y realismo, y tuviste gran acierto en el modelo con su chaqueta rojo que hace gran contraste y aporta la referencia perfecta para ver la grandiosidad de la cascada.
Congratulations

Amazing photo here Ricard. This area looks really beautiful with the waterfall looking like just a crack in the earth (I like how you can see the cliffs in the top left of the frame). Good inclusion of the human with the bright red jacket.
Regards,
David

Bonjour Ricard,
This is an amazing view of the wonderful waterfall, which seems so natural in it's beauty. I'm sure that this photo is a very good reminder for you of your sights and thoughts of your visit to Iceland. The red jacket of the person in the image provides excellent contrast to the balance of the image, and the size of the person gives a good perspective of the size of the falls. Well done.
Cheers Grant

This is an amazing shot of an amazing place! The shot is very impressive, good choice of time exposition to stop the waterfall in action. The person bring a good idea of the scale and immensity of the nature here.
Very good job!

Hi Ricard,
This really is a splendid view of Gullfoss, you did well to find a viewpoint that conveys the power of the waterfall. Although I'm not normally a great fan of waterfalls with people (there are a lot of Skogafoss like that), I think it works very well here and gives a real sense of scale. Looks like quite a perilous position to stand in!
I'm a bit confused as to whether you were using a film or digital camera here. In your note you say you were trying out your new F-70 (if I understand Catalan correctly!) but the "More Photo Info" gives a D70. I must say it looks very sharp for a scan so I suspect it's the latter.
Anyway, very nice photo.
Regards
John

A red jacket like this one? ;-)
A very impressive shot putting this place into scale. And the proof that Iceland is impressive in any kind of weather.

Hello Ricard,
that´s a very nice picture. Great Point of View and good sharpness. The man in the red anorak is a good contrast to the waterfall (seems like he´s going to be wet :-))
Very well done,
cheers Kris

Hola Ricard,
Excellent framing of the wonderful place. The color of clothes of person put expertly is most suitable, the reduced exposure has succeeded, too.
Have a nice day, Hisashi

Colori ed inquadratura stupendi Ricard,
Composizione quasi grottesca, acqua e vapore crea effetto d'esplosione!
Buona giornata!
