My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

Iceland | Monday, October 11, 2010 | 5 photos


My last adventure took place in Iceland: three weeks alone and by bike. From the capital Reykjavik, riding up to the remote fjords of the west to photograph the community of puffins, a bucolic relaxation between the volcanoes of the Lake Mywatn and the crossing of the central desert on the legendary kjolur route. I took thousands of pictures, and themes in such a journey are many. What has afected me most were the population. 300,000 people living alone, evolved in a hostile environment that they love more than anything else. That's why I tried to represent this bucolic lifestyle and loneliness. I choose Black and white shoots because reprezent the strongly reality of Iceland where humans are constantly pendent of ice and weather conditions. I hope to win this contest because this workshop combines my passions: photography and travels. What a day I hope will be a real job.
