I keep being deceived by the scale of the icelandic landscape.
with map in hand, I am consistently surprised at how small it is. I suspect that's borne of a lifetime of measuring travel distances in hours and days. in canada, crossing a mountain range or descending to the shore from a summit are often major endeavours - here it can be half an hour.
but when you get up close and personal, that's when the features of the landscape have been blowing me away.
geography vs. geology, if you will.

Geh, gehorche meinen Winken,
Nutze deine jungen Tage,
Lerne zeitig klüger sein:
Auf des Glückes großer Waage
Steht die Zunge selten ein;
Du mußt steigen oder sinken,
Du mußt herrschen und gewinnen,
Oder dienen und verlieren,
Leiden oder triumphieren,
Amboß oder Hammer sein.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

With some of the smaller nudibranchs it's hard to get a sense of scale. Here's a typical Tulamben nudibranch wandering along the edge of a peacock mantisshrimp's burrow. This photo almost looks lifesize as in the real animals are about the size you see them on screen now.
