ok, went through and picked ou a few photos from my trip to the mentioned places last weekend. sorry about how many photos there are so i´ve decided to split it into 2 parts so will post some now and some later. this time i´ll explain at least a few of the photos. ps i was pointered in cleaning up the photos a bit although i´m no pro i did make them a bit better this time so shout outs to that person who shall remain nameless except to stay their name started with r and ended with anger joe. the photos:

on the road out


4 waterfalls (seljalandsfoss on the right)


seljalandsfoss








skógafoss

note the nesting birds


notice the face on the left facing the waterfall. and you wonder why icelanders believe in hidden people...


view out to vestmanneyjar from near mýrdalsjökull


the famous black beaches of vík taken from dýrhólaey


stjórnarfoss in kirkjubćjarklauster




coming up towards vatnjökull, the largest in iceland.


"remember the seatbelt." i love this advertising campaign. back in au we´re force-fed images of dead people and lots of blood.


svínafellsjökull, a glacier tongue of vatnjökull. last time i was here i climbed onto this glacier. behind it slightly to the right and partially obscured by clouds is iceland´s tallest mt. called hvannadalshnjúkur at 2110m


our arrival at jökulsárlón




i´ll post the rest later. any comments welcome and i´d appreciate tips seeing all the quality work everybody else has done in the photography section.
