Seljalandsfoss Sunset
This is the fairytale Seljalandsfoss waterfall, in Southern Iceland.
I was so lucky that the sun found a gap in the cloud just before it dipped below the horizon. It lit the water as pink as the clouds, and illuminated most of the cave behind too. This light lasted for 3-4 minutes, and it's amazing to compare the photos I took before (which I was happy with at the time) to this one; the pick of the sunset ones.
I found this RAW file very difficult to process, as there's so much going on, and the colours captured just don't seem real - even though I I'd seen them with my own eyes. If anything they're a little toned down here, as I'm not a fan of the hyper-real super-saturated landscapes. But I can see me going back to this next year, and having another go. Sometimes the memories of the occasion can cloud my judgement in processing, and I might get a better result once it's less fresh in my mind.
