This dramatic evening scene in Iceland somehow conjured the word ‘plop’ into my mind. I mean, look at that little patch of grass, it’s like it just plopped in there! I cannot even find the words to express how much I have wished for a proper sunset on that evening – and obviously, I didn’t get one!
Take a second to think about what you are looking at. No really, take your time. Any idea?
You are looking at a drone shot of the end of river Ölfusa, taken right next to the Flói Nature Reserve. I asked why this looks so absolutely incredible and was told, that, as the river flows, it simply carries sediments that sort of get stuck on the wavy ground.
That’s what our guide in Costa Rica said – don’t touch anything, don’t step on things, basically hover through the air. Always remember, everything is a snake. He proceeded to point at certain things. This branch is a snake. This stone is a snake. He pointed at a road sign – that sign … could be a snake. Reminds me of that awesome documentary about snakes on a plane…
Iceland has as many waterfalls as sheep on the road (meaning loads) – but most of them are rather small or somewhat thin. Don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t make them any less beautiful, but when you get to a really big one, it’s a welcome change.
I don’t remember the name of this one, mostly because Icelandic names are impossible to pronounce, but it’s a very touristic place so if you ever go, you can’t miss it.
The view everyone wants, the view no one gets hehe. I had to work to get that sky in here, but the result looks exactly how I imagined the perfect night scene on the Lofoten Islands in Norway.
