'The glaciers and ice caps of Iceland cover over 10% of the landmass. As they melt, especially in the summer months, the outflow forms networks of river channels which flow from the glaciers towards the sea, carrying sediment and volcanic soil.
When the flow of the rivers subsides, sediment settles on the river bed, leaving behind small temporary islands of dark volcanic sand that cause the channels of the rivers to split. The always-changing rivers systems can be several kilometers wide so it is only possible to see these patterns from an aerial perspective....'

'The Wadden Sea, located in the southeastern part of the North Sea, is the world’s largest unbroken system of intertidal sand, mud flats and wetlands in the world. A vast area along the coastlines of the three countries: The Netherlands, Germany and Denmark. Declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2009, it has a high biological diversity and is an important area for both breeding and migrating birds.

'This is the compound eye of a Deer Fly. A common pest around these parts, this fly has razor-sharp “teeth?” and will cut an incision into your skin and drink the blood that spills out. If I had a choice I’d rather feed a mosquito – at least there’s no mess! As with mosquitoes, it is an instinctual reaction to swat them when they land on you. Unfortunately they are far more difficult to swat and far more annoying.
This one I managed to hit, so yes, this fly was intentionally injured by me (he had it coming!). I stunned it and broke a wing so it couldn’t fly away, and the I got the crazy idea to photograph it’s eye. This was the result.'

#14 Abstracts – Wildart YOUNG Category Winner – D’Artagnan Sprengel, New Zealand.
'I stepped outside into the garden as I noticed the late afternoon sun was nicely backlighting the leaves of the flax [New Zealand Flax Phormium tenax]. I chose to take the photo in portrait orientation as I knew it would work better with the long, tall leaves. I decided on a shallow enough depth of field to create a sort of soft, dreamy background but still showing the outline of the other leaves.'
