A journey of photographic adventure, Two Views was born by two friends having a blast and learning from each other on a photo shoot in the autumn sunshine, asking the question “How can we continue to push our photographic boundaries in terms of technical knowledge, new challenges and creativity and have fun at the same time?” The answer we came up with was to set ourselves a project every two weeks, and then publish the results together. Two Views of the same subject / idea or technical approach. By the end of this year we will have covered 26 subjects and produced at least 50+ awesome photographs, and have learned a huge amount along the way! We’d love your comments, critiques and ideas, and if you want to “play along” too, please do let us have your shots by links in the comments sections! TJ & The Brunette

Ice by The Blonde


I took LOADS of Ice photos in Iceland! (Unsurprisingly! *wink*) And for me as soon as my better half spotted this football sized piece of glacial ice sitting serenely on a black lava stone beach, looking like a high end art installation, I knew it would be "the shot". Luckily the sun was just setting and so was at a very low angle in the sky, just perfect for some back lighting to make it look even more crystal like. I wanted to take it home and display it as art... but it wouldn't have lasted too long! Below are some of my other shots from the glacial lagoon ( you will recognise it from two James Bond films and Tomb Raider 2) and the black sand beach where chunks if icebergs get "caught" on the rocks, like the one above, and also some close ups of ice crystals and another glacier. You can tell I just LOVE ice!

    This is a wonderful photo, it really is super sharp and the lighting is just perfect. A really marvellous photo! A long way to travel to get an ice shot :)
