The scenery in Iceland is vivid, and so this portfolio is enhanced accordingly.  These photos were selected to show the different elements of what makes the sights breathtakingly inspiring and are enhanced accordingly.  Mainly color is enhanced and images are sharpened to convey a vivid and lively feeling, like you're there and enjoying it.  If you travel with a camera like Andreas Gursky, you never know what kind of pictures you can get along the way.

Final exam preview

I've chosen to use pictures I've taken during my trip to Iceland in a landscape group to show the energizing nature of the scenery.  I've narrowed it down somewhat at the time of posting this.  Out of the over 1,100 images, I've got it down to these 27 compressed images.  In a future post, I'll have the top 15 touched-up and professionally printed.  For now, enjoy!
