STORM AT DIAMOND BEACH

Breiðamerkurjökull Glacier in south-east Iceland calves icebergs into Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon. The river Jökulsá connects the lagoon to the Atlantic Ocean, along which these icebergs drift out to sea where they are polished by the waves. On this February day, a storm had thrown huge numbers of ice blocks onto the adjacent black sand beach. I waited for a wave to reach close to my feet and start to recede before making a 4 second exposure.
