Kurzbeschreibung bei Amazon
Stunning colour photographs of the barren beauty of the Icelandic landscape. The sounds evoked by Sigurgeir Sigurjonsson's photographs are the eternal sounds of nature - the sighing of the wind, the lapping of waves, the hissing of steam and the unchanging roar of a waterfall. In the elemental world of these pictures, man is largely absent. The brief initimate glimpses we are given of human life - a farmhouse kitchen, a man fishing, a family attending the lambing - only serve to underline the overwhelming emptiness of the Icelandic landscape. It is these very qualities of peace, quiet and solitude that many visitors are seeking when they come to iceland - one of the last places in Europe where you can lose yourself in a wilderness seemingly untouched by man.
Ein wunderschöner Bildband über Island. Tolle Bilder mit kleinen Beschreibungen. Da wir ja grade dort waren ist dieser Bildband einfach nur ein Schwelgen in Erinnerungen. Wirklich total schön.
