Edits over tea-
Icelandic waterfall and the amazing Valentina Model and Aim π¦πΊπ¬π§π΅π±
The greens in the background were beautiful, but in the end, this monotone won out....
I almost left the 14-24mm at home when I went to Iceland, but I'm glad I didn't. There were several times where I wanted or needed 14mm and 24mm the widest on my next lens would not have been enough... here being one of them.
While shooting here, our last location of the roadtrip, I had the 14-24 on my trusty Z6, and the 24-70 on the z6III, so I was using my tried and true z6 and being amazed at what I captured...
In other locations I often used the z6III as primary, but it's evf lead me to give up in a few places with as I thought I couldn't capture the shot with the way the light was... here though as the 14-24 was on my z6 and I was using it and all was good, but then I grabbed the z6III a few times, for the lens on it, and it gave me that same experience it had on the glacier and I was like what.. I took a shot looked at the preview of the shot and realized it was the evf doing something horrible when live in this setting, as the captured image was fine... if only I had realized back on the glacier several days before.... Need to mess with the settings and see if I can make it better for the future in settings like this and the glacier

Editing over tea
Model Aim π¦πΊπ¬π§π΅π±
Went to work on photos from the Iceland photography road trip but found myself going back in time to images filled with light and shadow.
All natural light, in a studio in downtown Salem.
I think I know which version of this image I like the most, but I was debating for a bit, so a few options shared.

Iceland, I miss you...
I've only been home a few days, and allready miss the space. I am surprised that the first edit I made and brought to a point of sharing from my time in Iceland on an adventure prepared and lead by Aim π¦πΊπ¬π§π΅π± isn't from the photoshoots with her and Valentina Model , but one taken just prior to our first shoot as we walked the trail... More so, as when I sat down I had photos from two other locations in my head as the ones I wanted to explore first, and yet I started at the beginning instead.
If you ever have the chance to see this wonderful land, I encourage you to embrace the chance
