Dettifoss Photo | TrekEarth

Photographer’s Note

The real power of the nature. Imagine to have 200 m3of water falling of 40 m. You can see this amount of water every seconds. It is one of the most impressive fall of Europe.

Very powerful and impressive photo of a beautiful place! I really like how you have captured the water and I also very much like the tight cropping that makes the waterfall appear even larger. Too bad the op right corner is over-exposed. Even so it is a very nice picture! Looking forward to see more from Iceland...

Welcome to TrekEarth Jacques. When I first saw the thumbnail, I thought I was looking at Niagara Falls.That is an impressive drop and your picture conveys the amazing volume of water as it flows over the crest.Thanks for a view of Iceland we seldom see.

I really like your cropping and composition. The texture of the water is amazing, sharpness is fantastic. I can almost hear the water by looking at this one.
This is a powerful shot and I hope to see more of your pictures, especially from Iceland. Very well done!

Brutal, that's the word that comes up to me. Brutal force, brutal colors. You really captured the power of this fall. Maybe you could trim the upper part of the pic just a little bit...

Très beau cadrage. La vitesse de capture bien choisie montre de très petits détails comme des gouttes d'eau. Well captured!

Rien que la photo vous donne le vertige tellemnt l'angle est bien choisi , on croit entendre gronder les chutes. L'Islande est immanquablement un des paradis pour les photographes.
Merci de nous faire partager , au travers de cette jolie photo, la puissance et le déchainement de cette eau qui nous est pourtant si vitale.
