Iceland Landscapes

Landscape photography of Iceland - from the majestic peaks of Vestrahorn and Kirkjufell to the ice diamonds of the Jokulsarlon beach, from the surreal ice caves of Vatnajokull National Park to the black sands of Reynisfjara and on to the streets and landmarks of Reykjavik

Diamond Beach 1
The beautifully ornate and translucent ice washes up on the beach at Jökulsárlón in Iceland providing a stark contrast with the jet black sand. This was captured just after sunset when the ice becomes even more entrancing.
Hallgrimskirkja
Hallgrímskirkja church is one of the most distinct landmarks in Reykjavik. It was designed by Guðjón Samúelsson in 1937 with construction beginning in 1945 and ending in 1986. In front of the curch is a statue ofLeifur Eiríksson (c. 970 – c. 1020) – the first European to discover America. Records suggest that Leifur landed on the shores of the new world in the year 1,000 A.D., that's 500 years before Christopher Columbus.
Reynisfjara Beach
Reynisfjara is a beautiful beach at the southern end of Iceland. It is remarkable for the black sand, strong Atlantic waves crashing around the basalt sea stacks.
