2014 Arctic Photographer of the Year - 2nd Place

Posted on 21st December 2014

My aerial image "Glacial Rivers in Gold" won second place in the Northern Landscape category of this year's Arctic Photographer of the Year Awards. Over the years, I spent countless hours hanging out of small airplaces shooting glacial rivers above the Arctic Circle, however, this particular photograph remains one of my personal favourites. Late evening sun illumates the glacial river bed in the Highlands of Iceland, beautifully separating the small rivers from the surrounding volcanic sand and creating a truly spectactular atmosphere. I will never forget the moment.
