A dreamlike scene on Diamond Beach in Iceland. Here, sparkling icebergs gently float on the black sands, creating a spectacular display of glistening gemstones. These ice fragments come from the nearby Breiðamerkurjökull glacier, resembling scattered diamonds along the shore. The northern sunlight paints magical hues on the water and ice, creating a surreal and enchanting atmosphere. Diamond Beach is a magical place, where the beauty of Icelandic nature manifests in all its splendid purity, offering breathtaking views and an unforgettable experience.

 

The French are glad to die for love.

They delight in fighting duels.

But I prefer a man who lives

And gives expensive jewels.

A kiss on the hand

May be quite continental,

But diamonds are a girl's best friend....

Diamond beach, Iceland, Nov. 2023

 

This is a different perspective on the famous Diamond Beach. The last few days of my recent trip to Iceland were accompanied by "terribly" good weather. I was already worried. Then Iceland gave me this day full of fog and frost, which was even forming on the black sand.

 

Since I'm at the very beginning of my photographic journey, I decided to give color another try. My love for black and white photography is unwavering and I will certainly return to it soon. But it would be a shame if I didn't give color an honest chance.

The name of the tower in blue is called the Almas Tower. Almas is the arabic word for Diamonds. Fitting name.

South of Wallabi Point, the shoreline curves south for 6 km to Red Head. In between is the longer Diamond Beach and two smaller beaches on the north side of the head (NSW 190 & 191). Diamond Beach (NSW 189) is also known as Back Saltwater, or just Back Beach by the locals, and runs for 5.5 km to the south-southwest curving round to trend due south at the southern end. The beach can be accessed from the Saltwater National Park in the north, which may mean a walk across the rocky creek mouth if its flowing, and from the southern Diamond Beach community. The Darawank Nature Reserve occupies the northern half of the beach, while in the south, a few shops and a car park are at the small Diamond Beach settlement, together with 4WD access to the beach.

It receives waves averaging 1.5 m in the north, decreasing at the very southern end owing to slight protection from Red Head and some reefs off the head. It has a double bar system in the north-centre and a single bar to the south. The inner bar is dominated by rips throughout its length with 20 or more rips common along the beach, as well as a permanent rip against Wallabi Point, which is supplemented by tidal flows from the creek when it is open.

Day 3 12 months ago in the Iceland redux...

 

This was our first visit to the Ice lagoon and diamond beach at Jokulsarlon. It was a bright sunny day with lots of people milling around. We had been watching the webcam from here in the weeks running up to the trip. It was a little surreal being in the place you had envisaged for such a long time. It was great fun tho waving at the camera with loved ones back in the UK watching on....

 

It was a troublesome day for me tho. We were in the middle of a pretty stressful house move. Solicitors and conveyancers had dragged their arses for too long! Our vendor had threatened numerous times to pull the plug to put the top hat on it all!

 

Anyway, I'd received a call from wifey earlier in the day saying we had been advised due to the threat of lockdown we had to move in 3 days or it wasn't happening. I still had 5 days left in Iceland!! So, I spent most of the day and the evening sorting out the utility companies etc..because they would not speak to anyone else apart from the bill payer, ME!

 

So whilst I was enjoying myself in Iceland with fantastic scenery, stupidly expensive meals and hot tubs under the stars, she was busy disconnecting the washing machine and emptying the loft!!

 

All credit to her she pulled it off. Albeit she is still dining out on it now! So, I left home in Cheshire, never returned and arrived at my new home in Staffordshire 8 days later.

 

Squeaky bum time in Keflavik airport on the return home! Out of the 38 cancelled flights on the board ours plus one other were still flying. No more than 12 passengers on board! Phew!

Diamond Beach.

 

Al sur del Islandia se encuentra esta maravillosa playa de arena volcánica negra y trozos gigantes de hielo que parecen diamantes enormes .

Donde los icebergs de la laguna desembocan en la costa y crean el entorno mágico.

Los trozos de hielo se desasen en el mar haciendo un entorno increíble para la fotografia de paisajes por las mañanas en el sol los ilumina dándoles un color azul espectacular..
