IcelandChaos in Thought
Diamond Beach, Iceland, 2022
The sun's appearance was not a common occurrence during our time on Diamand Beach. When it did come out, I was scrambling to find something nice enough that I was willing to potentially get wet for.
Time after time, it was nothing special, and it wasn't until these small icebergs that I felt there was something that I could work with. Granted, it was all absolutely breathtakingly beautiful. It was myself being maybe picky or having a difficult time finding a connection with something. It had nothing to do with the landscape.
But as time would have it, I did in fact walk away with something I was happy with, though I didn't fully realize that in the field. It took coming back to the states to realize that this was something special to me and something that I really liked. It is a memory of an experience of the whole evening of jumping out of the icebergs crashing back at you or running away from the tide and watching the light land upon the surface of the soft or rough tide.
