Interesting, Rajan. I think I like #2 the most. Something enigmatic that draws me in.

Really like that first one Rajan. The moving clouds remind me of a watercolor painting because the greys are so nuanced. They also help bring out the grittiness of the the hostile landscape while at same same time softening its hashness. Superb!

One more vote for #1 but both are spectacular and you can be proud.

Thanks, Russ. As for staying away from me, you don't have to be so rude in public  :D

The first is fine. The second, though, conveys the scale and magnificent desolation of Iceland.
