Fiery sunrise in Grindavik, on the way to the airport. The colors are not enhanced!

impressionist
Canon 7D, EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS @ 400mm x Canon 1.4x TC
Long lens landscapes of scenes several miles distant. Atmospheric haze gives these an impressionist feel.
Þingvellir chapel
This little chapel is usually closed and locked. Got lucky that the Prime Minister of Iceland was arriving for a ceremony, and was able to have a look inside.
pyramid
This house sized structure was in the middle of a lava field, with no clue as to its function. Weird but cool.
Jökulsárlón
Several films have scenes shot at Jökulsárlón. The lagoon has more than doubled in size since 1975 due to increased glacial melting attributed to global warming. In 2009, the glacier retreated at EIGHT times its recent historical rate.
