John says: "I kept looking at this photo and wanted to be there. The 'blueness' makes it tranquil and cold, and at the same time, I know it's warm in the lava-fed springs in Iceland. There was some thought put into the photo, and this type of photo is therapeutic for the eyes. It takes us away from everyday reality, and brings us to a more soothing place. I would want to hang this photo on my wall at home or use it as a screen saver."
