reflection,  Travel

A day at Vestrahorn

The furthest eastern destination of our trip was the Vestrahorn. With a private beach of black sand, this place is interesting at low tidal ranges because of its reflections. The nice lady at the entrance gave us a ticket for morning and evening. So we came there in the morning and in the evening hours.

The blue colour of the reflections deceives the fact that a warm morning sun illuminated the beach. My friend Detlef is almost lost in the vastness of the beach.

Sometimes I find it difficult to make panoramic shots because can’t plan the picture in my head. Every panorama always contains a small surprise. On the Vestrahorn I made this panorama with reflections from shots with identical parameters.

I like to make things visible the naked eye isn't able to see. That's part of my profession as a radiologist, too.
