iceland V.

on our way to Kiðagil in Northeast Iceland - where we were going to spend the fourth night of our journey - we drove through an endless and barren volcanic desert and stopped eventually by the geothermal area of Hverarondor Hverir - in the Mývatn region. I had never experienced anything like it before: the various colours of the ground went from red to turquoise because of the sulphur and the smoke radiating from the fumaroles gave the landscape a completely surreal look. despite the strong smell of sulphur we spent a long time there taking photographs: below are some of mine.
4th selection of my photographs from Iceland:
Nikon FM - Kodak Ektar 100
Hasselblad 500 C/M - Fuji Pro 400H
Hverarondor Hverir is certainly among the most impressive places I have seen in Iceland - even though it hadn't been the only geothermal area we visited when we were there. I will share more photographs of other geothermal areas and there will be plenty more on the coffee table book that Jacopo and I are working on together!
P.S. remember to visit my website and my Flickr from time to time: you can find some of my photographs from Iceland there as well! and check Jacopo's Flickr too!
