Iceland never stops to amaze me…

Well done, Rajan! This last one looks like one taken on another remote planet (except for the small vertical posts, of course).

Thank you, all.

Francois, those are the posts for the power lines.  I considered cloning them out but decided to keep them in (for now).

Rajan,
I would keep them. I don't think that they detract anything from this magnificent image.

I'd respectfully disagree. If they could be removed without disproportionate effort and you have no ideological objections to such tampering, I think you should do it. They form an imperfection, albeit slight.

Jeremy,
I don't have a strong opinion about removing or leaving them. I'm just lazy, that's why I'd leave them...

Jawdropping photo. Would love to a see photo of that exact location in the middle of Summer.

The poles help to give a sense of scale and I think to some degree, place. I'd leave them as well.
