In the distant background you can faintly see the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier head where icebergs break off into the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, near Diamond Beach, Iceland.

Diamond beach is located in Southeast Iceland, about 4 hours east of Reykjavik. Nearby the Breiðamerkurjökull glacier head breaks away into the Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon, which is full of icebergs. The icebergs slowly melt in the lagoon as they funnel towards a large stream which carries them into the Atlantic Ocean. Afterwards, ice crystals from the size of a car to small ones you can hold in your hand, wash back up on the black volcanic sand beach. It’s quite spectacular!

Stjornarfoss waterfall in southeast Iceland is nearly 49 feet (15 meters) in height. Though not among the tallest waterfalls in Iceland, the stunning surrounding landscape makes for a dramatic composition.
This site was one of several stops on a 12-hour bus tour along Route 1 of the southeast glacial coast in Ireland, leaving east from the capital of Reykjavík. An average stop was only 45 minutes, taking 10 min off the top for a bio break, you’re left with about 30 minutes to enjoy the site and take pictures. For me, that meant no time to cover most landscape composition opportunities and setup a tripod with ND for long exposures.
The other challenge is keeping the other visitors out of your shot. Sometimes you have to use that new facing AI removal tool!
