South Iceland. Everyone shoots this beauty, but it's just so darned impressive! Note the teeny tiny figure in the shadows to the right for scale---.
To continue with my Holiday snaps I thought it was only fair to upload one of my many waterfall stop offs.
This is Seljalandsfoss Waterfall. It is probably Icelands most famous and most visited. Im sure that will have something to do with the fact its right next to the side of the road. It is the only waterfall in iceland you can actually walk right around.
With this being such a popular spot you definitely need patience on your side to pick the best moment to take the shot without another tourist getting in the way. luckily for me no one else ventured outside of the designated walking area so I had this spot all to myself. Although looking through Flickr Im certainly not the first person to climb over the barrier.
Ideally I would of liked to of been set up 20minutes before i was however we were somewhere else and the light was all wrong so i made a mad dash round to this side instead. Iceland is a special place that keeps on giving.
Seljalandsfoss es una de las más cascadas populares. Se encuentra en el sur de Islandia, entre Selfoss (la ciudad) y la cascada Skógafoss. En realidad, está muy cerca del famoso Eyjafjallajökull, el volcán subglacial que en 2010 colapsó los aeropuertos de medio mundo.
La cascada, que tiene la particularidad de que se puede caminar detrás de ella, se precipita unos 60 metros, desde lo que fácilmente podemos reconocer como acantilados de la antigua línea de costa de Islandia. Cuando tras la época de glaciación el glaciar se fue retirando, la tierra bajo este se “levantó” al dejar de soportar semejante peso además de que el propio glaciar fue dejando sedimentos que hicieron que la línea de costa aumentara en unos kilómetros.
