The Girl in Greenland

September 20, 2017 by Michael Lai in A Photo a Week, Travel, Travel Greenland, Weekly Photo Challenge, Wordless Wednesday and tagged greenland, ice, lady in red | 22 Comments

This could be one of the best pictures taken by my wife in Greenland.

She was photographing her sister – the lady in red.

The light reflected on the ice appears as twinkles!

Green for Greenland

September 11, 2017 by Michael Lai in A Photo a Week, Travel, Travel Greenland, Weekly Photo Challenge, Wordless Wednesday and tagged green vegetation, greenland, ice, moss, river | Leave a comment

Much of Greenland’s landscape is ice and more ice.

Blue and white are the predominant colors.

Summer brings in some colors.

Here is a flowing stream with moss; looks amazing!

Panorama View from Greenland

September 10, 2017 by Michael Lai in A Photo a Week, Travel, Travel Greenland, Weekly Photo Challenge, Wordless Wednesday and tagged glacier, greenland, ice | 8 Comments

What is it like to stand on the rocks, just in front of an icy landscape.

The view is breath taking, to say the least.

There is not even a single soul in front of you.

You are a part of the landscape.

Another Icy View from Greenland

This is just another view of Greenland.

I like the picture being flanked by rocks on both side.

Surreal View from Greenland

September 5, 2017 by Michael Lai in A Photo a Week, Travel, Travel Greenland, Weekly Photo Challenge, Wordless Wednesday and tagged greenland, ice, sky | 6 Comments

Basically you are surrounded by ice.

You have a feeling of vastness and even bleak and the winds are howling.

The picture before you is basically monochromatic.

Photo taken by my wife Linda.

Greenland is a land of profound beauty.

More Ice from Iceland 2

August 29, 2017 by Michael Lai in A Photo a Week, Travel, Travel Iceland, Travel Theme, Weekly Photo Challenge, Wordless Wednesday and tagged ice, Iceland | Leave a comment

The photos in this series from Iceland consisted of only two colors – blue and white – if I can call white a color.

Otherwise, the photo is monochromatic.

Everywhere is ice and the view is tranquil!

Again, photo taken by my wife Linda.
