Usually everything, well most images of Iceland look like Mordor. These pictures are stunning. Even the grey sky of the waterfalls is over powered by that Carribean blue water. I will vote for the first image of grass and mountain. The green grass and sand are the stars and here and there is more of them to see. There is something unsettling about the second image. Maybe, it's like the dunes or the mountain are photo bombing each other? Not sure which. Nice to hear there is more to come!

I love Iceland. I'm having a hard time picking which picture is best. I'm going to say, the first one. I know what you mean about that warm glow making the sand look like common sand. But, the big shadow in the foreground of the 2nd one blows out all those lovely sand lines. They are both gorgeous.

I have the hardest time trying to choose between shots I take myself... now you are pushing me to make me choose one of yours... ugh! Seems many prefer the 2nd shot but I finally found several folks who like the 1st better. I have to go with my first impression else I'll still be looking at the two of them when your next video comes out! I lean toward the first one. The foreground is a tad overwhelming in the second shot to me. But then that's what makes life interesting... different things appear to different folks. Love your videos Gavin and especially love your educational videos and classes. Thanks to you and Amanda for all your good works to bring us great content!

Two beauty shots. I'm hanging my hat on the 2nd, this has more dynamics in its presentation. I like that the horizon (denoted by the ocean and base of the mountain) has been taken away leaving the grassy dunes in the mid ground (they really are the star in this scene with that wonderful light). And, the obvious mimicking of shapes of the grassy dunes and the mountains in the background is a nice touch. Critically I find more interest in the rippled sand foreground of the first shot. What a place, Iceland.

Nice, You certainly had better weather than I did in the first week of August. The Bruarfoss I also shot with the long lens from underthe bridge. I also managed to get sharp shots using the drone with the 10 stopper and 1 second exposure time. I generally use the lenshood to keep rain and spray off the lens or a lens cloth until just before pressing the shutter button

I have a theory that Hasselblad has the capacity to produce only enough lenses to supply KZitemrs :) Had planned, with the X2D, to start shooting with Hasselblad -- portraits -- but have been unable to find anybody with a waiting list for the lens I want, 'launched' gotta be coming on 2 years ago, shorter than half a year or more. Oh well, threw the money at more Nikon lenses (can one have too many, really LOL) and will have to continue to live vicariously through your Hasselblad shots. Speaking of which -- some amazing shots here. Beauties!

Phenomenal lens, with a rather phenomenal pricetag. Think I'll be sticking to my smaller, lighter primes. (And hoping that Hasselblad makes more P lenses.) As always, you've captured some absolutely stunning photos. Out of the two Vestrahorn shots, I'm personally more drawn to the first. I prefer the perspective, with the body of water separating the dunes from the mountains, and a better view of the distant mountains on the right. It feels like a more natural perspective, and I could imagine myself standing right there taking in the awesome landscape.

Hi Gavin. As fo rthe pics at Vestrahorn, I have it really difficult to decide which one of them I like more. The first one shows slightly better what is the actual landscape, with the sea between the dunes and the mountains. But the second one is more moody, more dramatical. So ... And well, I must confess I'm suffering a hard attack of envy for three reasons: the camera, the lens ... and Iceland. All of the three in my bucket list 😂

Cool lens. I’ll keep my 21mm prime. I thought I would miss zooms when I switched to Hasselblad but at the wider end it’s easy to fix composition with your feet. I’ll be interested if they ever release a longer zoom in the 75-150 range. I saw your shots featured on their instagram page. Great work
