Photograph by Johan Brouwer , National Geographic Your Shot
Rain and fog nearly spoiled Your Shot member Johan Brouwer s plan to photograph lava dunes during sunset near Stokksnes in southeastern Iceland. I was looking for other opportunities to make the most out of the moment, Brouwer writes. I saw this great reflection of lava dunes in the water, and suddenly the fog disappeared partly, which gave the whole scene a mystical appearance.
To get this shot, taken below Vestrahorn mountain, Brouwer focused on the reflections with his camera on a tripod, protecting it against the wind and rain. The wind stopped very briefly, and I was able to take the picture. A few seconds later the fog came back and the wind and rain continued.
Brouwer s picture recently appeared in Your Shot s Daily Dozen .
