Title: Take It In
(May, 2014)
Location: Fjallsárlón, Iceland
Description: This image marks one of my favourite and most meaningful memories. It was taken during my first trip to Iceland, and my first travel adventure I ever went on to create photos. Iceland was my dream country to visit, and after I got a few friends on board to come with me, we spent a couple weeks living out of our rental car and exploring and camping all around the country. Towards the end of the trip we stumbled upon this place, just as the long golden summer evening was beginning, casting beautiful light across the glacier... I was almost panicking with awe and excitement as I ran around trying to capture this image.
After I got it, I looked around to see where my friends were... and realized everyone was completely silent, all spread out across the landscape, each sitting in their own spot, staring into the golden light in almost meditative states. Suddenly, I felt this moment was sacred - and I put down my camera, sat down and did absolutely nothing for the next half hour. All of us apart, but together in awe, soaking in the magic that mother nature held there for us to witness. Ever since then and to this day, I prioritize "Taking It In" (the title of the image inspired by the experience) above taking the "epic banger photo"... Being able to remain present, and really look a scene through my own eyes, instead of always through a camera lens... that is what really sticks with me.
