At the end of June I finally visited long awaited destination of Iceland. My girlfriend and I spent 14 days there. It is such a magnificent place to visit and I want to go there some day again. Yes, it is very, very expensive there and more and more tourist visit it, yet you can still enjoy Iceland's beautiful nature in peace, mainly late in the evening (one can take advantage of Iceland's long hours of sunlight during summer time).

 

Here are a few images from my trip. All images were taken with my Nikon d750.

Excellent series.

I had Iceland already on my bucket list - with this series it moved up the list.

Thanks, dcbear78!

It was on my bucket list as well. I planned to visit Iceland in 2015 but I injured my ankle just before departure and had to postpone my trip.

Excellent series.

Thanks, Jerry!

You should visit Iceland soon. It is getting more and more crowded. As I mentioned before if you want to go there during midnight sun season you can take advantage of long periods of sunshine (when there is sunny weather). It is less crowded after 9 PM on many locations and you get better light as well, as it is golden hour(s).

A few more. Again, all taken with my Nikon d750.

 

Godafoss:

Hverfjall (volcano):

Aldeyjarfoss is approximately 50 kilometers from Godafoss. Gravel road leads you to a small parking lot and then you have to walk for less than 10 minutes and you get to see this:
