Judges Comment

A great postcard and well executed memory from an unusual place. It simply works.

Photographers Comment

I first visited the small village of Gásadalur in the Faroe Islands some twenty years ago, when it was accessible only by boat or by walking over the surrounding mountains. Today the once secluded village can be reached by car and last summer I went back and brought my photography gear. For this shot I used a Canon 5D Mark II with the Canon 16-35mm lens and a couple of Lee filters for a 30 second exposure to capture the scene as I had intended. Thank you for the Mark of Excellence. All the best, Hans J. Hansen
