I rarely photograph in color. The color in photography usually diverts attention, it is not conducive to contemplation of light and shadow. It washes out images from contrasts. However, in the case of the Icelandic interior, it perfectly emphasizes its character. I associate the pastel delicacy of browns, oranges, greens with the softness of the local meadows, idyllic climate, the noise of streams rushing through the mountain valleys. A delicacy that I appreciate especially after descending from the mountains.
