Una de las cascadas más hermosas y especiales de Islandia. Esta cascada cae cerca de 60 metros desde el rio Seljalandsá. En otros tiempos esta cascada caía sobre el océano, que hoy está varios kilómetros más lejos. En la foto se puede apreciar justo el momento en que se forma un pequeño arcoiris, debido a las gotas de agua que saltan de la caída. (Skógar, Islandia)
Another angle on the waterfall Seljalandsfoss. Getting this close to the thundering torrent on a wet and windy day turned out not to be a great idea for the camera but I managed to get a couple of shots in before starting to worry about all that moisture.
Since it seems Flickr is not going to fix the problem of blurry images on the photo pages I thought this would be an appropriately blurry upload.
Seljalandsfoss , Iceland
This is the famous Seljalandsfoss waterfall in Iceland, where you can get in behind the falls. After a solid day of heavy rain, a lot of water was going over the falls, and with the 50k winds that day, we became saturated and almost froze to death. the wind was blowing the water back into the cave too, so it was a bit of a trial to get get these shots :) I used a monopod built into a trekking pole to take this shot.

This waterfall is on the southern coast of Iceland. I've been planning this shot for a few months now, the sunset was just beautiful.
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most famous waterfalls in Iceland as it was notably utilized as a waypoint during the first leg of The Amazing Race 6. This waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 metres (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline. Seljalandsfoss is situated in between Selfoss and Skógafoss at the road crossing of Route 1 (the Ring Road) with the track going into Þórsmörk. One of the main reasons for this waterfall’s popularity is the foot path that loops behind it, allowing visitors to see its beauty at a level that’s up close and personal. It’s an amazing sight to see!

Just come back from Iceland. This is an amazing country !
Please let me know what you think about my first attempt of HDR with 7 RAW
During my first trip to Iceland I was not equipped with a tripod. One of my favorite pictures from the trip was of Seljalandsfoss, but I always thought it might have been improved by a long exposure. My photography has come a long way in the intervening 10 years, and I was lucky to have a chance to give this composition another shot. After processing this image, I'm ready for attempt #3.

Seljalandsfoss 20210714
Seljalandsfoss is one of the most beautiful waterfalls in Iceland and is located near Hvolsvöllur in the region Suðurland, Rangárvallasýsla.
Seljalandsfoss is fed by melted snow and ice from the glacier Eyjafjallajökull. In the summertime, there is a lot of melted ice and snow in the river Seljalandsa to create a powerful waterfall.
Seljalandsfoss is a 65-meter high waterfall that cascades over ancient sea cliffs into a pool below. The pool is called Kerið or Fossker. At night and in wintertime, the waterfall is illuminated.

Seljalandsfoss is a waterfall in the south of Iceland. The waterfall drops 60 m (197 ft) and is part of the Seljalands River that has its origin in the volcano glacier Eyjafjallajökull. Visitors can walk behind the falls.
Seljalandsfoss waterfall, Iceland. This was probably the most frustrating / difficult photo to take. The mist from the waterfall covers your lens in a split-second making a clean shot hard to take. And if you stand there long enough, you get soaked too. But how often do you get to walk behind a waterfall?

This was really THE shot I wanted to capture in Iceland and probably it's the best one from the whole trip. Ever since I saw similar images on Flickr I wanted to get one of those myself. I did a lot of research on this spot and checked if the sun position (www.esrl.noaa.gov/gmd/grad/solcalc/ is a great tool for that) will be right during my visit. It turned out that I had to do the shot on sunset as the sun will most likely be too much north (to the right) during sunrise.
Everything planned and ready to shot I arrived at Seljandsfoss on the second day of the trip but the weather had other plans.. The sky was overcast and one could not see the sun. No sunset on the first day..
The next morning the weather looked much better and we decided to spend one more night at the campsite (we had two extra days planned in our trip and using one at the very beginning removes much flexibility later) and hoped that the weather will stay nice for the sunset. During those two days we've spend some time around the waterfall and checked the conditions. It turned out the one gets really wet when walking behind the waterfall. So staying there for half an hour with temperatures around 10 degree Celsius requires good clothing and protection for the gear.
I went behind the waterfall during the day and you really have to hurry with your shot. In less then half a minute the lens is full of little drops which destroy the image.
We arrived at the waterfall about 30 minutes prior to the sunset. Setup the tripod and the camera, composing, adjusting settings and shooting. It was really helpful that my girlfriend joined me and cleaned the lens and the filter so that I didn't had drops on the lens for another 2 or 3 shots.
Staying behind the waterfall for 30 minutes is really a torture to all you equipment. The lens and the camera really got wet (they have never been that wet before) but luckily everything still worked well after the shot. Would have been horror to loose the camera or the wide angle lens on the second day of the trip. Obviously Sony/Sigma have done a great job and also National Geographic did a great job with their backpack (which has a rain cover) as all the other equipment stayed dry during the shot.
So I'm a happy with the shot? Yes I am. It was well worth the effort. The lamp in the middle is bit disturbing but they are used to light the waterfall at night (which is really not needed at that time of the year as it stays bright all day and night long)..
