Paul McMullin recently travelled to Iceland as part of a group led by Paul Gallagher of Aspect2i. The beaches where the glacier melt tumbles out onto the black volcanic sand offer particularly rich grounds for the creative landscape photographer. Here we show some of Paul's images.

All but the one below were shot on a Nikon D800 using a 24mm shift Nikkor and exposures between 1/90s and 30s. The terrifying aspect of these images is that you might not be able to shoot them very much longer as the glaciers retreat under global warming. For the moment, though, the place retains a mysterious, elemental beauty which can take your breath away.
