Looking at some photography books over Christmas prompted some experimentation with a different black and white process of images from Iceland. Although I rarely try to process color images “as I saw them” (often, for example, applying a gradient of color temperature which is not really a naturalistic thing to do), I do have a tendency to gravitate toward a somewhat neutral look. In black and white it’s easier to push toward something more dramatic, and for this second look at Iceland I’ve played with a much more contrasty look.
