Artwork description:

Kirkjufell by photographer Nick Psomiadis - The photograph captures Kirkjufell, a mountain located on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in Iceland, at sunset. The sky above the mountain is a stunning mix of warm oranges and reds, with the clouds taking on a soft and gentle appearance as they are illuminated by the sun's fading light. The mountain's rocky slopes are partially in shadow, giving them a dark and dramatic appearance that contrasts with the warm hues of the sky. In the foreground, I have captured a frozen landscape, with patches of snow and ice reflecting the warm light of the setting sun. The light creates a soft, warm glow that highlights the texture and detail of the icy landscape. The mountain's symmetrical cone shape is still visible, with the details of the rocks muted by the fading light. The mountain's rocky slopes are partially in shadow, giving them a dark and dramatic appearance that contrasts with the warm hues of the sky. The photograph captures the peaceful and serene beauty of Kirkjufell at a moment of transition from day to night, with the fading light of the sun casting the mountain in a soft and gentle light. The lack of the waterfalls in the foreground and the brightly lit peaks allows the viewer to focus entirely on the mountain's shape and the warm colours of the sky, creating a sense of calm and tranquility. The frozen foreground adds an element of stillness and quietness to the scene, inviting the viewer to pause and reflect on the beauty of the landscape.
