My son and I took a 2 week vacation to Iceland and logged about 2000 km driving a campervan and exploring. If Iceland is on your bucket list, don't hesitate! This set is from Jökulsárlón Iceberg Lagoon near the famous Diamond Beach in southern Iceland. The dark blue is was previously underwater before the iceberg flipped over. Photos were taken with a Canon 5DSR and 24-70mm f 2.8 ver 2 lens.

IS a beautiful place!!!
We want to go visit again.
I've been there 3 times in the past 4 years. Expensive as heck, but I can't wait to go back. Even if you disregard the scenery (which is wonderful) the air there is so fresh and clean...when you get back home you'll think you put a dirty sweatsock over your face.
Other factors to consider: Hotels/Motels are all super clean and neat. Iceland is not a nanny state - If you want to lean over the edge of a cliff or waterfall - there are no guard rails to stop you. The Ring Road around Iceland is mostly two lane, but no guard rails or shoulders so you have to be careful where you stop to photograph their magnificent scenery. Very few large trees in Iceland so you have unobstructed views. All day long the sun is low in the sky, so the golden hour is actually golden 10-15 hours. Because the sun is low in the sky you can see great rainbows any time there is a shower and a break in the clouds.
Beautiful set, thanks for sharing.
