Somewhere Only We Know

by Viktoria Haack

Beautiful hoar frost by the river at dawn. I only had moments to set up and capture the image before the dawn light faded.
Equipment: Nikon D300s
Viktoria Haack
Born in England, Viktoria first became interested in photography when she was given an SLR camera for her 18th birthday. At University she attained an honours degree in World Art Studies and Museology. This gave her exposure to the numerous different art forms across the world and enabled her to look beyond many of the western conventions of art. For her, photography is more than capturing a physical moment in time: It is also about capturing feelings and emotions. In 2007 she moved to British Columbia, Canada where she finds inspiration in the beautiful environment that surrounds her.

The first word that came to mind was “breathtaking,” but someone already said that – I guess I’ll have to go with Fantastical! From foreground to background it’s a great capture. This is one of those images that works well with the horizon right in the center of the frame. Nice work!
