Golden Brown
Among the variable and volatile whims of Iceland's weather are moments like these when calm pervades and lazy golden light streams in from the welcome sun low in the western sky--at Vestrahorn, near Hofn, Iceland.
The warm light here looked beautiful on the black volcanic landscape, bringing out rich brown hues, and lighting the scattered clumps of reeds and grasses that managed to survive both the challenging elements and the innumerable footfalls of eager travelers (I found a mostly untrammeled spot here, but the broader dune field--behind me from this angle--was covered in tracks on this day without a vigorous wind to refresh the sands).
Thanks for viewing.
