In this week’s images from Iceland, I’ll share a few images of waterfalls, Icelandic horses, and glaciers.
I share the image above to remind you we were on a photography tour. This is what happens when the van stops and all of us get off with cameras and tripods in hand!
Waterfalls
Skógafoss Falls
Dettifoss
Gullfoss
Foss á Síðu
And a small river alongside the road we stopped at. I was looking for likely places where a fish might hold.
Icelandic horses
The horses in Iceland are unique. We stopped multiple times to capture a few images of these magnificant animals.
These horses always ran or walked to the fence line to greet us.
We found babies in the fields during our 12 day trip, but there was never a pull-out close by to safely stop.
At the end of day 2 fly fishing and on the way to the airport, we found this mom and baby.
Glaciers
We viewed glaciers on our drive around the southwest area of Iceland very close to the ocean.
Large glacier with two small red rafts with about a dozen passengers. This glacier was massive.
Closer view of the glacier next to the lagoon.
Blue iceberg in a lagoon.
Iceberg closeup.
We found small icebergs on the black volcanic rock beaches.
I found this bird looking piece of ice on the beach and layed in the sand for a closeup picture.
Enjoy…go fish!
Fabulous photos John!

Fantastic! Donna and I are so pleased that you and Karen had this opportunity. Thank you for sharing.
Hi John,
Loved the all of the pictures but I have to ask, “What camera is DancingTrout holding while talking to the horse?” I looks like a Nikon point & shoot. Take care & …
Tight Lines – Al Beatty
Thanks for the comment Al. She’s using my original Nikon mirrorless, the Z50 crop sensor camera. The lens on the camera is a 16-50mm, but we have a 50-250mm that came with the kit. In addition, she used my 105mm macro for puffins, which made it a 157mm flull frame equivalent.

The hike back up from that waterfall must have been a doozy!
