Title: Two Icelandic waterfalls
Post by: Vieri Bottazzini on September 12, 2020, 03:50:38 am
Waterfalls are a constant presence in Iceland, they grace the landscape with their presence pretty much everywhere you look. Some are more iconic than others, and among the iconic ones Kirkjufellsfoss and Skogafoss are definitely high on the list. Here they are, photographed in winter:

Perfect season for these two waterfalls… The sky is superb and the long exposure perfectly suited here. My favorite is the first one… I especially like the juxtaposition of the mountain and the waterfall.

Thank you very much for your comment, Francois. I totally agree with you, winter is amazing for waterfall in Iceland and I will share some more "icy" photos soon. Glad you enjoyed #1 here! :)

Best regards,
