Waves smashed into the shore near Stokksnes, an old NATO station in southern Iceland. Time after time, the water was pushed high. Sometimes the climax came with a big bang against the rocky coast, other times the high waves dropped back into the rough sea. A spectacle I could not get enough of. Always waiting for that perfect wave, watching the direction of the water, and being surprised again and again by the unpredictability of the effect.
An environment where everything around you remains still, an environment where time does not count, an environment where you can both unwind and where adrenaline rushes through your veins.
"The coast at Krossnes reveals a majestic symphony of natural forces in 'The Dance of Water and Wind'. On the photographic stage, only the furious play of waves appears, obeying the fickle melodies of the wind. The sea, like a talented dancer, stretches in a heady choreography, where each wave is a work of art, born from the dynamics of water and air. No horizon, no distractions, just the pure expression of the power of nature. 'The Dance of Water and Wind' captures the poetry that takes place where elements converge, inviting deep contemplation of the indomitable splendour of the sea."
