![]() So to avoid blowing the highlights and to enhance the orange saturation, I used a 3-stop soft GND filter. This is the only way I could get the Sun to heat them up and cast a strong orange tint on them. Speaking about the sky, I had to trust that it had the right clouds: not too high, not too low, not too dense, not too thin. I wanted to boost the reflection of the clouds in the water to get a symmetry between the ground and the sky. Here I used a CPL filter to polarize the lower part of the frame. The pool you see in the foreground is far from the sea and the only way to see it full is after a heavy rain. In order to photograph this dawn golden hour, I had to wait until it had rained first.

I took this picture during our Iceland expedition. Isn't it amazing?įoss is the Icelandic word for waterfall, and the names of some of the waterfalls are so incredibly hard to pronounce (and to remember!). While there's no official record, estimates say there may be as many as 10,000 waterfalls in Iceland. Let your imagination fly!
