GODAFOSS – PHOTO OF THE MONTH SEPTEMBER

Sticking with the waterfall theme the photograph of the month for September is the waterfall ‘Godafoss’; which literally translated from Icelandic means ‘Waterfall of the Gods’. Godafoss is one of Iceland’s most beautiful and easily accessible waterfalls. The waterfall is formed by the cascading glacial waters of the river Skja’lfandafljo’t; which has cut a horseshoe canyon through the rock forming the shape of the falls. Despite the fact that Godafoss is smaller than many of Iceland’s famous waterfalls it is strikingly beautiful and was one of the many locations I had been really looking forward to visiting and photographing. As fate would have it the Gods would smile on my visit to Godafoss and deal an amazing hand with some of the most stunning light I have experienced for landscape photography. A higher resolution version of this photograph can be seen in my Iceland portfolio at www.jholko.com.

DIARY DATE: PHOTO PLUS NEW YORK OCTOBER 2011 – MOAB AND LEGION PAPER PRINT DISPLAY

A Diary Date to Note: If you are attending Photo Plus in October this year in New York please be sure to get along and see the good folks at Moab and Legion Paper; who will be displaying a number of Fine Art prints from their Moab Masters including my Gold Award winning Australian Professional Photography Awards (APPA) print at their booth. The print is being made on Moab Somerset Museum Rag on a Canon IPF8300 Large Format printer and will be a giant 44″ x 54″ inches. This will be the first time I have exhibited my work in the USA and it is exciting to be displaying work in conjunction with Moab. I believe samples will also be on show of all Moab and Legion papers products. I cannot attend due to prior commitments in Australia but look forward to hearing from those of you who are going along. It should be quite a show.
