Wonderful Jökulsárlón
I had a great time at the black sand beach of Jökulsárlón on the southern coast of Iceland. The Jökulsárlón glacier breaks away into the lagoon, the outgoing tide takes the icebergs away, the rising tide brings them back to the beach. The result is a fabulous 2 or 3 miles long playground : big and small icebergs, as beautiful as jewels, dispersed on the black sand with strong waves rolling them again and again. It is tremendously exciting to make photographs in Jökulsárlón. Of course you get wet and cold, but you dont care at all. However you need to stay cautious, waves and icebergs can roll you too. I received one or two, but they were not big, I didn’t fall and I holded the camera out of water with arms raised.
I did two series at Jökulsárlón, the first day under the Icelandic heavy rain, and the day after, at sunrise with nice weather. This one is taken the nice day.
