Cliffs of Dyrholaey

One of my favorite spots of my trip to Iceland was the cliffs at Dyrholaey (see also my previous post). Every weather condition gives you a certain atmosphere and provides you several options to make nice shots. This one is my favorite of this spot. In the morning it was rainy and cold emphasizing the black rocks, cliffs and sand, but during sunset I was grabbed by the way the how golden light and spray of the sea gave these cliffs a more mystical atmosphere. I immediately knew that I had to go more into the details and while I was setting up for the best composition some people came to the beach. Although these people gave some nice scale to emphasize the magnitude of the cliffs from hindsight they were very lucky!
