The weather was strong - with days where the wind was over 30m/s but never the less the Icelandic beauty was on full display. These images are from a brief roadtrip along the South Coast.

All of these images are single exposure with basic edits - nothing added, nothing removed. The only use of AI is for moderate noise reduction.

As we had to get rid of some bread and rolls before check-out, I decided to feed the excess to the seagulls. I quickly became their new best friend!

A nice shot of a tiny shell.

Lighthouse view - my car is the dark one

On the rocky shores of Svaneke, Denmark, the lighthouse stands tall as a guardian of the Baltic Sea.

A peaceful reminder of the harmony between sea, land, and tradition.
