Midnight sun sings in Selárdalur, near Samúel Jónsson's farm.  Some background and more photos in my blog post. (http://www.parrikar.com/blog/2011/07/04/selardalur/)

I wonder if the people living there ever get the feeling they're being watched?  Nicely done, BTW!

Mike,

Many Icelanders believe in the presence of "hidden folk," elves, and trolls.  Given this kind of landscape, it is not hard to see how such beliefs came to be.

Great shot and a nice example for an image which really gives a sense of dimension which often is missing in landscape shots.
