[Notas - Normas] Nota do Artista
Early July at the Ilulissat icefjord around midnight. Even when the nearby village of Ilulissat is warm, the ice has an aircon effect and keeps the fjord cold. It's a cool foggy morning where I live today, but I know some people are roasting elsewhere, so I hope this helps.

Hi tan,
Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooowwwwwwwwwww, we lose 50° from your previous shot. I'm sick now...
Fantastic shot, light, composition, colors...
A favorite

Wow, Tan, it does really good on a hot day like today! The light is just gorgeous, a splendid pov and depth!
Magic!

Amazing shot.. the light is romantic and the composition perfect. The different colours are absolutely attractive. Bravo!

Thx very much Tan for preoccupating about us :)
It is so hot here. But then your shot is very cool.
You appear to be a great traveller !!
A strong contrast between Thailand and Groenland even if it finishes in land. I'm waiting for the next step!
David

Hi Captain,
This post fits perfepctly to the very hot day we're "enjoying" today, I like here the small pieces of ice disseminated over the calm water, the reflection is nice and the light is splendid, itneresting to see how it throws yellow tones on the iceberg, where normally we see more blue.
Superb photo !
Have a nice day,
Jean-Yves

I want to see this with my own eyes...excellent shot, it gives me the shivers!

This is an Incridble photo.
The Colours are fantastic, and the reflextions are very well captured.
And of course the mother nature made a great job as usual.

Congratulations

Wonderful Tan, wonderful!
great balance of light, excellent POV and colors.
It's a pity that some pieces of ice covered the water reflection!
thanks, ciao

mmmm... Tan.. what to say? Lovely POV and great light and color.

Very very nice shot!!! Well done.

Beatiful. Here the light and the colour are the most importants elements.
With that light everywhere must be wonderful.
But here there are more than light and colour. Is a fantastic photo.
Thanks for share.

Great shot. The light is fantastic and you have captured a crisp icy feel. I like the big chunk of ice in the foreground and the smaller bits drifting into the distance, it gives a great feeling of space.

Wohhhhhh, I want to Greenland !!! It's amazing, great shot: composition, colors...

Great one! I love the light in this photo, which makes this much more intersting than the very blue shots you normally see of ice. The composition is well balanced also, with the ice at the bottom balancing the iceberg in the upper left. Well done!

Hi Tan,

Another great shot from that great place that I didnt have chance to visit yet. Beautiful colors and great depth. Very good choice of picture in these hot days.. L.

Great landscape, great composition, and glorious light!

and as you imply, we do not have anything close to that, here, in San Francisco, so, much to enjoy.

Truly wonderful image and view from this our very northern province of Denmark - I love the fine mix of golden colours, white ice and reflections. Thanks Tan - a favorite.

Great view, i like so much iceberg and Greenland is a wonderful country. Light on ice and sea is too nice,well seen foreground in your composition. Thanks for sharing and bravo for your shot.

Bonjour Tan,
Plus de 40°C à Liège (BE) mais qu'il est bon de voir des images aussi refaichissantes. Comme quoi, tous les étés ne sont pas chauds.
J'aime beaucoup les couleurs diverses dans cette glace.
Bien vu et capturé.
Daniel.

Wow, so this is what Greenland looks like. Great POV - it looks like you were floating on ice when you took this shot (and yes it does make me feel cool here in sweltering Malaysia). Cheers . . . David

A stunning capture, Tan. I have seen so many shots of ice and this part of the world where the glare on the ice or other areas of the scene ruins the photo or diminishes its beauty. You have perfect balance and light control here, with good contrast and reflections as an added bonus. The composition moreover is superb. This is a first class contribution to TE.

Hi Tan.
And here's another terrific landscape ! It's always amazing to discover the variety of your album. Here, the colors are frozen and superb, and you've managed the light and contrast optimally. Thanks for sharing !

Its crazy that its so light at midnight! The downside is all the darkness in the winter though!

This is a great shot the iceberg looks just like a cliff! Great shot

Hi Tan
What a fantastic scene - magical and dramatic. The lighting, composition, colours are all wonderful. You are lucky to have seen such a view - thanks for sharing!
Susanna

Hi Tan,
impressive cold seascape, with a good sharpness and "warm" light. The composition is also very well chosen.
I like to see the surface of this cold water, full of little pieces of ice and icebergs, they does not exist in my Mediterranean Sea. The white wall of the iceberg at the background, has reminded me one very famous picture of "Salvador Dali" named "The Great Masturbator - (1929)", look... the nose (as the reflection of the iceberg) , the eye (as the hole), the grasshopper (as the white horizontal little icebeg)... maybe Salvador Dali was there to be inspired to do it, who knows it?
You can see the picture in the follow link: [ Dali ]
I know that it must be seen with a great imagination, but... sometimes nature creates "original forms". What do you think?
I hope you like this "different" POV of your photo.
Best regards
Jaume

Hi Tan,
i've just seen your latest egyptian picture so i looked at your gallery and found this beautiful shot.what a nice composition ! the colors and litgh are just wonderful, i like the reflection effect in the water, good framing also, nice work !

That's a great shot, it recalls me when I've been to Illulissat at the age of 10 for a school trip. Unfortunately I have a very few memories of that journey, and your picture is so perfect it makes me want to go back there.
Thank you and congratulations.

I'm always amazed at your pictures. the light here is magnificent.

Beautiful! But it really looks cold. Do you live on Greenland?

Magnifiscent image, lightning, sharpness and composition !!!
TFS,
Olivier

Great reflections, sharp, ice-cold water. Midnight! This is just great :) Very nice composition with the bigger ice berg and foreground. In the back, another distant ice berg. Very harmonic, nice note.

Hi Tan, Interesting composition from such a far away place. To hear it is a midnight photo is amazing. Good colours and scenery virtually out of this world. What a great thing to be able to see this on TE. TFS. Murray.

Really nice,
what time of the year did you go???
I like the reflections from the water's surface as the waters were stil good stuff
Artur

Hello Tan
Excellent landscape, great sense of proportion given by the different iceforms,
really well done
Regards
Daniel
PS where are you on your travels? Just in case you need directions go to www.mappy.fr and lookk for 5 avenue de grande bretagne in toulouse.

This is such a beautiful picture, lovely colours, amazing scene, clever composition. Nice partial reflections of the big icebergs (?) on the left, on the sea.
Very sharp and tranquil, great share!

Hi Tan
Beautiful POV and colours.The reflections are also wonderful. Beautiful place to take pictures.
~greetings Albrecht~

Hi Tan,
I couldn't stop browsing your Greenland photos, they are wonderful. I chose this one to give my smiley, because I love the composition, the reflection in the water, the colors, the light... I want to go there too!
Btw, how much have you travelled in your life? I see you are now here in Europe. Lucky you :)
Ciao from Italy
