Thursday Spotlight #8

By Editor Peter Davidson
Edited and published by Yvette Depaepe, the 5th of September

 


We are introducing a new feature specifically for those shots that have been overlooked by our many mysterious and secretive curators for an Award
.

Each Thursday, one shot from the current gallery of Published (but not Awarded) images will be displayed here in the Magazine. We hope you enjoy the images chosen and the authors gain some much improved visibility of their work. And who knows, whisper it softly, maybe one of these shadowy curators might have a softening of their cold dark hearts and even Award the image...

This weeks overlooked image (until now) is by a photographer who must have the biggest tripod in the world. And an equally long ladder in order to climb up to his camera. Very daring! Just as daring as finding impossibly beautiful vistas like this one. But worth it, in order to capture an image of such a daunting and wild land of ice and mountains that would be a perfect backdrop for a good book or film about, say, rings and Hobbits? Then again, Hobbits walk around in bare feet, so maybe not. But I digress. A quite spectacular image this.
Well done Carlos
