Ilulissat Icefjord

Ilulissat Icefjord is covered with large bergs and brash ice from Sermeq Kujalleq glacier. The glacier has considerably accelerated its retreat since the 1990s:

Der Ilulissat Eisfjord ist voll mit großen Eisbergen und kleinen Schollen vom Sermeq Kujalleq-Gletscher, der sich seit den 1990ern erheblich zurückzieht:

Hallo Gudrun, wenn es nicht so dramatisch wäre, würde ich zu diesem besonderen Foto sagen "Schön". So muss ich sagen: "Schade"...

Danke vielmals, Udo! Dort vorne am Fjord hat sich der Gletscher schon sehr, sehr lange zurückgezogen, aber was weoter hinten passiert, ist in der Tat dramatisch.

I try and avoid shooting into the light like this, but you've really cracked this one Gudrun - that sunburst is absolutely fantastic. I love the light and shadows and especially the hint of pink along the horizon. Brilliant..!!

Gudrun ^club has replied to Keith Burton ^club

Thank you so much, Keith! Sometimes I like to do this but I always use the smallest possible aperture and also underexpose by at least one stop. So far my sensor has survived;-)

Hi Gudrun,

I really like the starburst effect from the sun!! Looks just like the big yellow sun we see on the weather forecast!

All in all a great picture!!

Best wishes

Not easy to get a good picture shooting into the sunlight, but you have managed it. I try, but usually fail :) A superb shot Gudrun.

Gudrun ^club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne

Thank you so much, Rosa! Not all lenses make good starbursts. I had to stop down and additionally had to underexpose.

A barren wasteland. The uncovered rock gives way to an icy lunar landscape. Perfect starburst.

5 years ago.

Gudrun ^club has replied to Amelia ^club

Thank you so much, Amelia! The rocks were bare on the tops, but there were "valleys" in between with mosses, berry bushes and lichen, they grow as soon as it's a bit sheltered.

Eine fantastische Landschaft in einem wunderschöne Licht, Gudrun.
Bedauerlicherweise sieht die künftige Realität anders aus.
