Abstract Landscape

By taking aerial pictures of the ashen sides of volcanoes in Iceland, photographer Andre Ermolaev has captured the true abstract beauty of real landscapes in this photo series. Ermolaev explains his thoughts on Iceland below:

“Iceland is a wonderful country; I would even say that it is a true paradise for all the photo shooting-lovers. But what has become a real discovery for me is the bird’s eye view of the rivers flowing along the black volcanic sand. It is an inexpressible combination of colors, lines, and patterns. The photo represents the mouth of the river falling into the ocean.

“A little bit upstream there is a yellow-colored brook flowing into the river, but yellow currents fail to mix with the main water flow. One can estimate the scale judging by the car tracks that are clearly seen on the black sand. This is just a river, just a volcano, just our planet.”
