Double Bend Travelling north along the Eastfjords of Iceland on a beautiful day in mid-November. As we turn towards Fáskrúðsfjörður, the sun is as high as it will get today at only 6° above the southern horizon. Lovely cloud shadows are chasing across the sparkling snow and highlighting the sweeping curves of Hoffelsdalur. The tall peaks in the background are Hoffell at 1092 metres / 3583 feet and Lambafell at 1097 m / 3599 ft. #SaturdayScenery #Iceland #Photography

Storm Front Tornadoes in Iceland are very rare, but this strong curve of cloud connected with a distant column that seemed to be spinning. The coffee colour of the water was due to glacial flour, and the deep ripples in the lake show how windy it was. November: Kárahnjúkar Hydropower Plant in Fljótsdalshérað. Looking across Hálslón reservoir towards Sandfell island - which was a 678 metre mountain - and Vatnajökull glacier, south-eastern Iceland. #SaturdayScenery #Iceland #Photography

Everything you see here is currently on fire or has burned, best I can determine from the official maps. The Babylon fire is currently estimated at 103,633 acres and is 25% contained. Fire activity for the Babylon fire is expected to remain active. Cause has not be determined, but the extreme drought in the area cannot have helped.

Autumnal Between dark clouds, the sun spotlit the serried terraces tumbling down to the fjord far below. High turrets of mountains displayed their ribs. A patchwork of highlights slid across soft hills lower down. Everywhere around, the soothing sound of water splashing down to meet the fjord below. October: Sunbeams, showers, and rainbows; it was a great day for photography. Mjóifjörður in eastern #Iceland. #SaturdayScenery #Iceland2025 #LandscapePhotography #Photography
