Dettifoss is a waterfall in Vatnajökull National Park in Northeast Iceland, and is reputed to be the second most powerful waterfall in Europe after the Rhine Falls.

Dettifoss is situated on the Jökulsá á Fjöllum river, which flows from the Vatnajökull glacier and collects water from a large area in Northeast Iceland. The sediment-rich runoff colors the water a greyish white.

The falls are 100 metres (330 ft) wide and have a drop of 44 metres (144 ft) down to the Jökulsárgljúfur canyon. It is the largest waterfall in Iceland in terms of volume discharge, having an average water flow of 193 m³/s.

Korela Fortress

Round Gate Tower

 

The surviving low (8 meters) round gate tower (Lars Torstensson or Pugachevskaya Tower) was located opposite the bridge connecting the Old Fortress with Spassky Island. The tower has two tiers, with fire ovens that were later laid. The walls of the tower are very thick (4 meters on the lower tier), which indicates that by the time of construction, fire fortification was already quite developed. Such towers were built in the Swedish Kingdom by Saxon masters from the early 1540s.

The Power of the Masters to Inspire:

After “Breakfust” at the Peninsula Creamery, Beverley and I stopped in at Bell’s Books a few doors down. Bell’s is one of the oldest remaining family owned independent bookstores in the Bay Area, established in 1935. We have been visiting since the early ‘80s. I enjoy glancing over the photography section. Bell’s relies on media donations from their longtime residents of Palo Alto. And being a College Town (Stanford University), you never know when a suitcase of attic gems will appear. Today I was fortunate to add the elusive 1st edition two volume set of Paul Strand; A Retrospective Monograph, Volume 1: The Years 1915-1946 & Volume 2: The Years 1950-1968. It is the last of the remaining books for my treasured Photography Master’s Collection. A collection I started back two score and three years ago. Some of you may know, Strand was one of the Pioneers of film photography, and is famous for his portrait of Blind Woman (1916). David, an artist in his own right, and who also works for Bell’s struck up a conversation. I was in the mood to photograph. I think if I hadn’t found the Strand Book Set, there wouldn’t be a portrait of David. Amazing how the Power of the Masters can fuel the mind.
