Iceland Hvítserkur
Offshore stands the majestic Hvítserkur, a 15-meter-high monolith in the northwest of Iceland. It looks like an elephant drinking in the sea.
Photography Tips
Being here at the right time is crucial because it allows you to play with the reflections and movements of the water. ND filters can also help to get longer exposures and create a nice contrast between the sharp rocks and the smooth flow of the water.
A highpass filter with a mask in Photoshop can help to sharpen just the rocks and give them even more attention.
