Admirez toute la splendeur de la nature dans ces photographies qui semblent figées dans le temps

Le Royaume-Uni et l’Islande recèlent de paysages magnifiques où la nature se pare de toutes sortes de couleurs, des plus chatoyantes aux plus froides. Melvin Nicholson, un photographe professionnel, l’a bien compris et partage fréquemment ses clichés envoûtants sur son compte Instagram pour nous offrir l’occasion de profiter des plus beaux paysages de ces régions.

S’il s’est installé depuis plusieurs années au nord-ouest de l’Angleterre, Melvin Nicholson prend fréquemment la route pour découvrir les plus beaux endroits de son pays. Ce photographe quarantenaire ne recule ni devant le froid, ni devant la difficulté du terrain pour immortaliser ce que le Royaume-Uni a de plus beau à lui offrir. Récompensé par la Royal Photographic Society en 2012, il propose ses services à qui en aurait besoin pour maîtriser l’art subtil de la photographie et expose gratuitement certaines de ses œuvres sur son compte Instagram.

Unbelievable white rainbow (otherwise known as a Fog Bow) down on Rannoch Moor near Glencoe in Scotland on Sunday. .

Snow Covered Glamaig from Moll, Isle of Skye I decided to try out a new road that I found today while leaving Skye for Glencoe and I saw this magnificent view from the car. I simply had to stop and shoot it. The colour palette was wonderful, the sky incredibly dark (just before the heavens opened) which had the snow covered munro of Glamaig really stand out and the trees finished off the composition for me. . .
