Iceland 2024: Miscellaneous

Many photo opportunities snuck up on us while we were in Iceland.  Here are the best of our unexpected shots.

Icelandic Sheep, Iceland
I love the look of Icelandic Sheep.  I don't love the green ear tag quite as much.

Night Sky, Ölvisholt, Iceland
The night sky outside our bubble hotel near Ölvisholt was beautiful, even if we didn't see the northern lights.

Eyjafjallajökull, Iceland
Eyjafjallajökull, site of the infamous 2010 eruptions that disrupted European air travel.

Glacial Runoff, Iceland
I don't honestly remember exactly where this was.  I just liked the look of the glacial runoff, and Danelle pulled off the road so I could walk down to the water's edge for this shot.

Yoda Cave, Iceland
Yoda Cave, called Gígjagjá in Icelandic, was a location we specifically sought out.

Yoda Cave, Iceland
And we were fortunate enough to have it all to ourselves for a while.

Southwest Coast, Iceland
Another location I can't specifically recall, but I loved how ominous the low clouds made the already stunning scenery look.

Jökulsárlón, Iceland
Hiking along the shore of Jökulsárlón early in the morning was incredibly peaceful.

Fjaðrárgljúfur, Iceland
Danelle and I weren't up for a hike into Fjaðrárgljúfur, though it did look mysteriously inviting.

And that brings my Iceland photos to an end!  An absolutely gorgeous country that I hope to return to at a different time of year to see and shoot again someday.
