Valley View: Moving Clouds

Taken in the spring of 2016 during a trip to Iceland. There are more than 350 churches across Iceland. For a nation of only 330,000 people, that's a high number and may lead some to think that Icelanders are particularly religious. When Icelanders are born, they are immediately registered as Christian into the Lutheran Church of Iceland. Fourteen-year-olds are traditionally confirmed and this is a common rite of passage into adulthood. While 85% of Iceland's inhabitants are supposedly Christian, the country is considered the sixth-most atheistic nation globally. In 2015 Iceland was voted the most godless country in Europe given that hardly any young people believe that God created the world, as well as the fact that a very high number of children are born outside of wedlock.   Only 200 total prints are available for these sizes: 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 20 x 24. Only 25 total prints are available for these sizes: 20 x 30, 24 x 36, 30 x 45, 38 x 48, larger per request. Once the maximum prints are made this image will be retired for life.  Image crop varies through the collection. Actual size may vary a few inches. Size refers to the live area of the image. Signature and reveal space further increase the over size of the opening for the matt. Custom sizes available upon request.   If there is another image you are interested in that is not listed, or for larger print sizes please feel free to reach out to me at Jack@jackcurranphotography.com Photo © copyright by Jack Curran Please Note: Your image is custom printed to Jack's specifications using 100% cotton Hahnemühle paper and archival pigmented inks from the original high-quality digital capture. It will likely take between 14-28 days for your print to arrive. Each print undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure it is up to archival standards (meaning the prints are crafted to be able to be placed in a museum for many years). Expect closer to 28 days if it was framed, and 14 if it was rolled or matted. Larger prints may require additional time.
