Dan HoldsworthÂ’s large-scale photograph of an Icelandic glacier offers an awe-inspiring view of the world. After capturing his pictures, Holdsworth edits them through analogue and digital processes to turn them into something startling. The blue of the sky becomes the black of space, while the ice and rocks appear in blindingly negative white, giving us a new perspective on nature at its most sublime.
