Iceland Stamp

This popped through my letterbox this morning. I was contacted last year by a graphic design company in Reykjavik called H2H to use one of my images for a stamp. They had been commissioned by Sepac, a partnership of post offices in small countries (Åland, Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Greenland, Guernsey,Iceland, Isle of Man, Jersey, Liechtenstein, Malta, Monaco, San Mariono). Each country was to produce a stamp with the theme "Landscape" to be launched in 2007. They chose this one of Jökulsárgljúfur National Park which I shot in the summer of 2004 whilst on a month long photography trip around the country.

Anyway, it was a real surprise to see some real examples and what struck me was the panoramic format they opted for.
