When winter snows cover Iceland in a sea of white, this volcanic
island is transformed into an enchanting visual masterpiece that
precariously rests on two tectonic plates in the North Atlantic
just below the Arctic Circle. Ironically, the white blanket reveals
more clearly the landscape's incredible geological formations and
remote human settlements, eliciting a natural human response of
wonderment. David Freese's profound, ongoing concern for our
environmental predicament is once again manifested in his
photographs of Iceland. By showing us what humankind is on the
brink of losing, his images share and preserve his vision of this
unique and special place. The award-winning Icelandic novelist,
poet, and playwright Auður Ava Ólafsdóttir contributes a
heartfelt afterword that adds her voice to the persistent warnings
and alarms that have gone unheeded by too many for too long. As a
citizen of Iceland, her testimony is that of a compelling witness.
A small jewel of a book, Iceland Wintertide becomes a powerful coda
to David Freese's Trilogy of North American Waters as the threats
and ramifications of a warming climate steadily increase before our
eyes. His photographs provide an added inspiration to act even in
the face of those who purposefully deny only to protect their
special interests.
