DOWNSTREAM OF GODAFOSS – THE WATERFALL OF THE GODS

I have previously posted a couple of photographs from Godafoss in Iceland and blogged about the time I spent there; where I experienced some of the best light I have ever been fortunate enough to photograph under. This photograph was taken during the same visit and just prior to those previously posted. It was one of my first frames in the area and was taken as I made my way slowly up stream to to the top of the falls where I subsequently made the other photographs. I recall being exhausted as I stumbled up the path to Godafoss on my last visit; I was sleep deprived and operating on auto pilot and my memories are a little foggy – but I will never forget that light. A higher resolution version of this photograph can be seen at my portfolio website at www.jholko.com

CANON AUSTRALIA EOS1 WALL JUDGE – ‘ORDER IN NATURE’

Every second month Canon Australia asks a professional photographer to set a challenge and guest judge the Canon EOS 1 Wall. 1Wall is exactly that: A wall that only the very best photos submitted for judging make it onto. The pro photographer sets a theme, and participants have the chance to submit the best photograph in line with the theme they can. The judging is as Canon say ‘bitter, but the victory is sweet’. The judges winner and people’s choice winner join the prestigious showcase of 1Wall conquerers, on display for all to admire.

It is with great pleasure that I present at the invitation of Canon Australia, my challenge for the months of October and November 2011 – ‘Order in Nature’ – If you feel so inclined – Give it your best shot! But… It’s going to take a lot more than just a postcard to get you onto my ‘Wall’…
