i'm having a difficult time understanding why you haven't received more responses than this. these shots are ALL very good! are those shadows from the clouds in the first? the third looks like it could have been taken on the moons' surface...very nice! the shot where the geyser is about to exploded is cool! do you have anymore from your trip? thanks for sharing these!

Thanks for the kind words, I appreciate it...yes, they are shadows from the clouds on the first one. It's actually the top of a mountain/volcano that was the inspiration for Journey to the Center of the Earth by Jules Verne. There is quite a bit of Iceland that looks like you're walking on the moon, Mars as well. In fact, the U.S. trained astonauts there in the 60's (?) to acclimate them to the surface of the moon.

I have more pix, but I think those are most of the good ones....

Wow, those are bloody gorgeous! I'm having a hard time choosing which one I like the best...

I am just now seeing these. The first image is just stunning - I love the quality of light you have there. It has a surreal, underwater effect to it - just beautiful!

And the picture of what looks like a Shetland pony is wonderful - he is staring right at you, curious and windblown - what a nice shot. :thumbup:

Great job!

I LOVE the shot of the horse. It looks like a pretty model posing with her hair blowning in the wind. BEAUTIFUL!

The horse shot reminded me of a pro model shot (and well done) also.
