Mountain Glow
Stokksnes in East Iceland is one of those wild places that deserves visiting more than once. It looks totally different depending on the time of day, cloud patterns, tide, and season. Wherever you see mountains going up right next to a large body of water -- be it a lake, sea or ocean, the landscape is usually picturesque, and Stokksnes is no exception. In winter, if you are lucky you could see northern lights dancing atop the peaks of the Vestrahorn, also known as Batman mountain. When the ocean comes closer to the mountain, and there is no wind, you might see spectacular reflections. When it's windy with low clouds hanging at the peaks as it was when got there, it takes on a wild persona.
