Behind the Shot – Earth’s Beating Heart

In this month's "Behind the Shot" story, I take you back to the Geldingadalir eruption in 2021 when I captured one of my favourite shots of that eruption and maybe all-time. I named the photograph Hraunhjarta, which means "lava heart" in Icelandic.

Aurora Borealis Featured How To Northern Lights

How to Photograph the Northern Lights

In this photograph you can see the northernmost crater in the foreground…

Behind the Shot – How Spontaneity Earned Me an Award-Winning Photo
