An amazing amount of water drops off the last cliff and into a narrow chasm. The mist reduces the contrast and makes it hard to keep my filter dry long enough to take a picture, but the view is breathtaking. The noise is a bit impressive too!
t's easy to miss all the complexity and beauty going on on a small scale with so many impressive vistas to gawk at, but even the ground under your feet has lots going on in Iceland. I particularly liked the combination of the fist-sized chunk of volcanic rock lying in the middle of an otherwise peaceful looking flowering tundra-scape.
The famous ring road turns and heads directly into the Skaftafell National Park and directly towards 2 of the glaciers that come down off of the massive Vatnajökull icecap. It is an awesome sight!
