Seljalandsfoss is one of the most famous waterfalls of Iceland. It is very picturesque and therefore its photo can be found in many books and calendars. It was a waypoint during the first leg of The Amazing Race 6. Seljalandsfoss is situated in between Selfoss and Skógafoss at the road crossing of Route 1 (the Ring Road) with the track going into Þórsmörk. This waterfall of the river Seljalandsá drops 60 meters (200 ft) over the cliffs of the former coastline. It is possible to go behind the waterfall.

Seljalandsfoss is without doubt the most famous waterfall in Iceland. It's packed with tourists from morning to evening so it's pretty hard to get a good shot at it. By the time I got there, too many buses and people were spoiling the view, so I decided to take it from a distance, behind the road in order to hide them.

This is the view looking at the path behind the falls at Seljalandsfoss in southern Iceland. The water falls 60m from the cliff down into this pool.

Beginning of March 2020 I spent 10m days with a few friends in Iceland. Seljalandsfoss, was our stop after Reykjavick. This waterfalls is 8m meter tall, normally you can hike and go behind this waterfalls, but the day we went it's too icy to hike to it. So I roam around a found a few more smaller waterfalls.

 

It's quite clear that summer has arrived!

 

This is Seljalandsfoss waterfall. Me and my friend drove around South-Iceland last weekend and photographed popular tourist attractions...

 

I used a 10 stop Nd filter and a Polarizer for this shot...

Bulbed for about 70 seconds, at F/11 and ISO 100...

Nikon D300 + Tokina 11-16/2.8...

 

Oh god how I love Iceland...

 

P.s. I have a 50 x 75cm print of this for sale, if anyone is interested...

Our guide told us that two days prior to our arrival at this location, a boulder had fallen in the area behind the main falls. While waiting for his charge in the adjacent parking lot, he had heard a loud noise - which he thought unusual. No reported injuries as the area is now closed off...

 

Needless to say we could not explore behind the falls, but managed to get close enough to feel the spray and of course snap a few photos.

I had remembered that I'd taken a select number of RAW images while on my trip to Iceland last year. Now that I have Photomatix I realized that I could create HDR images from these single RAW files. It's not a true exposure blend but with a moving object like a waterfall it's difficult to get multiple-exposure HDRs without serious ghosting. I never posted this before because the image was not all that remarkable. After being processed through Photomatix it really brings out the details in the sky and in the shadowed recesses in the rock overhang. As always, I try to process any HDRs to avoid halos and hyper-saturated colors.

“We need the tonic of wildness...At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” ~Henry David Thoreau
