Iceland, renowned for its ethereal beauty and unique landscapes, captivates admirers worldwide, particularly during the winter months when its allure is most pronounced. One morning in February, at Reynisfjara, the black sand beach unveiled a scene of remarkable grace as the sun ascended. Amidst the scene, alone stood a large rock between the ocean and stream, welcoming the sunlight in its semi-silhouette shape against the backdrop of the dark cloudy sky, reminding us of our resilience and hope.

I am a Japanese multiple award-winning photographic artist based in Hong Kong, specialising in landscape, cityscape and street photography.
