Seljalandsfoss, one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland, you can walk behind it to take a picture behind but it only works during non tourist hours and when the sun sets right in front of it. This is the not so typical view, the falls being swept by the winds, sometimes the wind gets so strong the waterfalls go completely vertical. Here is my version of trying to be artsy artsy with the composition and light.

The Ride, This was our ride in Iceland. Yeah it was bare, old and beat up but it did the job. A True Road Warrior, here is a tribute to the Toyota. A 2 deg night on the reykjanes peninsula. Will be traveling this march 13 to norway with my guide, now friend and partner from
iceland, Iurie Belegurschi.... hunting aurora north of Tromso.

Hire it from SADcars, did you?

I am not kidding. There is a car rental company in Reykjavik called SADcars that specialises in old, beat-up vehicles.

reykjanes peninsula, 30 min out of reykjavik... great place to hunt aurora, also a lighthouse, a coastline with karsts, and a geothermal area all walking distance from each other. amazing location.

a top shot from on of the hills hovering jokusarlon glacier lagoon in iceland taken during our first day of shooting down south past skaftafell, wanted to take a vantage shot after skidding down these slopes and carrying ice boulders around for images.

Shine bright like a Diamond, Jokulsarlon Black Sand Beach, huge ice carried from the river mouth from the lake into the sea only to be broken apart by waves and washed back into the beach opposite the glacier, perfectly scattered and broken into 5 foot pieces.
