Ingólfshöfði is a nature reserve that's home to thousands of nesting sea-birds, like puffins and great skuas. This tour was taken with the group Local Guide, which hauls people across a massive black sand beach in a hay cart to reach the headland and cliffs where the birds live.
I had taken my glasses off since it was misty outside and I didn't like the lenses getting wet. They slipped out of my rain jacket pocket and through the slats of this hay cart. The guides were phenomenal with helping me find the glasses during our return trip--and ensuring that the hay cart didn't crush them! This seems borderline impossible in such a huge expanse of black sand, but somehow they accomplished it!

We had so much fun hiking on glaciers our first time in Iceland that we had to make sure we could do it again on our second trip. We went out with Aron from Öræfaferðir / Local Guide Travel Service again, this time for a glacier hike on the Fjallsjökull Outlet of the Vatnajökull Glacier. We would highly recommend their services! Please feel free to check out the link below for more information.
This is a shot of me and my wife near the top of the glacier.
The College Park Aviation Museum is located adjacent to the College Park Airport. The College Park Airport is the world’s oldest continuously operating airport established in 1909 when Wilbur Wright came and trained military officers to fly the government’s first aeroplane. The airport is known as the “Field of Firsts” which includes the first female passenger, first machine gun tested on an airplane, and the first controlled helicopter flight.

Part of the vast expanse of black sand over which we drove was under water.

Damit ich zukünftig noch flotter unterwegs sein kann, hat mir GOOGLE ein paar Socken geschickt. Ich bin mir allerdings nicht sicher, wann .. wo .. und ob ich sie überhaupt tragen soll .. 😜👉
GOOGLE sent me a pair of socks so that I can be even faster on the road in the future. However, I'm not sure when.. where.. and if I should even wear them.. 😜👉
This was without a doubt the best day of our trip. We went out with Einar and his son from Öræfaferðir / Local Guide Travel Service. They were both amazing, and we would highly recommend their services! Please feel free to check out the link below for more information.
For our third stop, we joined up with Einar's son and another group to head into another ice cave on Vatnajökull Glacier, about 15 minutes away from the first one. This cave had two floors! We had to do a small rappel about 8 feet down to get to the bottom floor.
Pictured here is my lovely wife in a clever nook she found in the cave. She is a nurse, so she thought it looked like an MRI machine and just had to crawl in. This is a wide angle lens so she is only about 2 feet away from the camera here.
Being in these caves was unlike anything we've ever experienced. They were well insulated so it wasn't extremely cold, but the textures and formations were completely otherworldly. The ice will often take on a rich, deep blue color in these caves. However, we were told that because it was a bright and sunny day, that blue became more of the aqua/teal type color you see here.
Interestingly, due to the constant changing of the glaciers and temperature changes, these ice caves are rarely ever around for more than a couple of weeks at a time. You can go back every year and have a completely different experience every time. We were told that the ice caves we enjoyed, for example, were gone within a week of our visit. This cave in particular, had partially collapsed the day before we entered it, so we only got to see about 2/3 of the cave they had intended on showing us.

Here my wife and I accepted the challenge of holding a steady pose through 5 long exposures on a self-timer.

This shot was from the bottom floor. This particular section was not tall enough to stand in, so it required kneeling and crawling. I liked how the sunlight could be seen peaking through and lighting the rocks and icicles here.
