Beautiful as always.

And here, from 1974, is where the tectonic plates meet, or so we were told.

Very serene shots with that puffin and the pastels tones of the midnight sun…

Eric, looks like you were at Þingvellir. You were fortunate to experience wild Iceland in an era when the only paved roads in the country were within Reykjavík.

Francois - thank you.

Very true: The Ring Road had just been completed (not paved, of course), but few Icelanders seemed to be trying it out yet.

Yes, that was at Þingvellir. I believe the American plate was on our left and the European on our right.
