Background information about Forest of Waterways
About the Photoshoot
Aerial photography in Iceland offers an entirely different perspective, revealing patterns and landscapes that are invisible from the ground. My mission on this particular shoot was to capture the intricate network of rivers flowing through Iceland’s Highlands—a vision that came to life only after a challenging journey. The day began under an overcast sky, far from the vibrant conditions I had imagined, which initially filled me with doubt. As the helicopter hovered above the black sand deserts, stabilizing the camera to capture the flow of the rivers seemed nearly impossible. But persistence is often rewarded. The rivers, shifting and intertwining below, began to form an extraordinary composition—one that I hadn’t fully anticipated. The pale sky reflected in the waters, creating an illusion of a ghostly forest with countless branches and trunks. With careful maneuvering and patience, I was able to capture this surreal, almost otherworldly scene—a "forest" born of waterways, etched in black sand and tinged with subtle hues of red.
About the Location
The Icelandic Highlands are a remote and rugged region, defined by their stark beauty and diverse landscapes. The area’s extensive river networks, winding through volcanic sands and barren expanses, are a testament to the powerful forces of nature that have shaped this land. From above, these rivers create mesmerizing patterns, appearing almost like veins coursing through the earth or, as in this case, a mystical forest. The black sand deserts provide a dramatic contrast, further enhancing the visual impact of the scene. This isolated and pristine environment offers a unique opportunity to witness Iceland’s raw, untamed beauty from an entirely new perspective.
About this Print
"Forest of Waterways" is a landscape-oriented print that captures the stunning and intricate patterns formed by Iceland’s Highland rivers. The composition evokes the image of a ghostly forest, with the rivers flowing like pale, leafless branches through a stark landscape of black sand. The subtle hints of red in the sands add depth and contrast, bringing a touch of warmth to the otherwise monochromatic scene. This print beautifully combines the fluid motion of water with the rigidity of the landscape, creating a visual masterpiece that invites viewers to lose themselves in the details. It’s a striking piece that captures the ethereal beauty of Iceland’s hidden landscapes, perfect for adding a touch of nature’s artistry to any space.
