Mountain Heart


Mountain Heart, originally uploaded by DirtyDeeds.


Iceland was truly inspirational.


The sheer scale of the place really gets things in perspective. Had a complete hoot with Martyn and Andy as we travelled to as many places as possible on foot and 4*4. Highlights would be swimming in the blue lagoon with a raging snowstorm from the neck up and a hot bath below, Gullfoss, Þingvellir in low light & the nights out. Have to mention the prices, ouch, if the cold doesn't get you, the tills will! £10 a pint :(

We had it all and it was good.

I've started uploading stuff to Flickr so have a gander.

On the general topic of photography, it's been great inspecting the pictures I took. I remember my reasons for taking each and every shot. It's not that they're particularly great but it's very satisfying to me to not only look at the pictures but to remember my motivation for pressing the shutter release. Evocative. Are the best shots the ones where everyone else! can see my motivation for taking it? I fear so, oh well, I got satisfaction...and hope to provide it.
