Description

This is an absolute classic Iceland scene. On display are some of the elements that give the island that ethereal quality. A gushing waterfall of crisp clear water, the cold waters of the Northern Atlantic Sea and the unbelievable geography of a young land. The peak shrouded in clouds is Kirkjufell, which is undoubtedly one of the most picturesque peaks in the world. As a landscape photographer, were you able to design a scene to capture in an image, it would be hard to improve on the incredible flow and natural elements that are found here where Kirkjufell meets the Atlantic.

My wife and I camped about a quarter mile down the road from here on the outskirts of a fittingly picturesque and charming town tucked into a bay. I had one sunset and sunrise to photograph the scene, both were overcast and cloudy. Although I didn't get the explosion of color I was hoping for allowing for a stunning image, I was very grateful for an opportunity to stand in silence and take in a scene I had imagined in my mind for years.

This is absolutely beautiful! It'd be nice to take in morning coffee with this scenery in my backyard.
