I arrived at Þingvellir National Park after 6pm. I set up my tent at the campsite (since wild camping is illegal in the national parks of Iceland), cooked, relaxed, then went for a walk on the main touristy paths of Thingvellir at around 10pm. It was still light out, yet there was nobody around. Amazing. I stood there, in the fault between North America and Eurasia, and admired the striking walls around me. Those walls move away from each other by about 2cm each year; this is an active rift. These walls are part of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge and Iceland is one of few places where you can see the ridge above the surface of the ocean. And what an incredible sight it is, especially when you have it all to yourself.

Exactly one year ago…I was looking for puffins near the cliffs at Látrabjarg. Found many many birds, still, these are the funniest.

Black Rocks

Late October. The cluster of sea stacks stand dark against the yellowed sky. Countless seabirds wheel and scream. Strong onshore winds have whipped the waves into crashing foam.

The sea looks dark and uninviting, but it's just the volcanic sand which is black beneath the water.

The skerries of Reynisdrangar beyond Víkurfjara, the black beach at the foot of Reynisfjall mountain and south of the town of Vík í Mýrdal, southern Iceland.

Flekka was considered wise and forward-thinking. According to local legend, Flekka is buried nearby, and no ship will sink in Flekkuvík as long as her grave is visible. #Iceland #photography #nature #landscape #naturephotography #landscapephotography #abandoned #decay #concrete #graffiti #folklore
