Kirkjufell - 27 Apr 2020 - Flickr


An icelandic classic and probably one of the most photographed and impressive scenes in Iceland. Nevertheless - the scene with its iconic waterfall and mountain - is very tempting. I think I waited for a couple of hours until the light was right and I could capture the scene as I wanted. Now that I have photographed this scene, I can focus on my next visit more on exploring this magic landscape, wich is probably full of other photographic opportunities.
