Hellnar is on the Snaefellsness peninsula in Iceland and plays host to a dramatic series of basalt cliffs. This image was made around midnight - these lenticular clouds just kept getting better and better. I finally had to pull myself away around 12.30 and go to bed in anticipation of a 3am wakeup for sunrise.

A river rages over a small waterfall in the highlands of Iceland. Stormy clouds brood over mountains in the distance.

The legendary waterfall with Kirkjufell in the background with the midnight sun illuminating the clouds.

Some Icelandic horses at sunset among the ruins of a farm with mountains in the background.

Svartifoss, the Black Waterfall in detail with the basalt columns behind it.

Water thunders over the partially frozen Goðafoss waterfall in northern Iceland at sunrise.

Rainbows are one thing that Iceland has no shortage of. This particular one was captured while driving along the south coast, and is a fine example of storm lighting. The sun is peeking through the clouds to the left of the frame and has illuminated the cliffs beautifully, contrasting with the dark stormclouds in the frame. The rainbow is a stub formed by the highly filtered light - the cliff and clouds prevented it from growing any further.
Lómagnúpur is the most impressive of the cliffed mountains on the south coast, but it sometimes feels like the entire coastline is covered with cliffs of this stature. They once marked the coastline, and were sea cliffs. Over the millenia, glacial melt and outwash floods have deposited silt which has extended the coast by a few miles of flat and fertile land.

At the western tip of the Reykjanes peninsula lies this wild coast with pounding waves, cliffs and sea stacks.

This image of Seljalandsfoss was made using a long exposure. The rainbow caused by the setting sun arches up and around the falls, which spill out over an overhang into a pool below.

Lómagnúpur is an iconic sight along the southern coastal route. The last of the cliffed mountains on the drive to Vatnajökull, it is easily the most impressive. Rainy weather was moving in and the mix of dramatic clouds and the evening sun creates truly fantastic light.
Made with an ultra-wide angle lens, the unique perspective adds another element of drama to the scene. The mist wreathing the cliffs, and cascading from the top adds the finishing touch to a very unique image.

Skógafoss is one of the most iconic of Iceland's waterfalls. Here, the waters thunder into the river at its base and clouds of mist rise.

One of many waterfalls that dot the south coast, I enjoy the contrast of white water versus the black and gray stone behind.
