Amazing Iceland! Photos of my travel in the land of Ice and Fire

in hive-127788 •  5 years ago 

In March 2018 I went to visit Iceland with a friend of mine. I was always fascinated by this incredible place where the extreme opposites meet in a conflictual weeding giving us spectacular shows. March is a magic month to visit this place as most of the snow, in the south, is melting but you can still see it on top of hills and in hidden corners. Glaciers are still safe enough to walk on and, at the same time, roads are accessible and waterfall rich in water.

Here my photos of that magic trip.

Amazing view of Gullfoss, one of the most famous waterfalls. Water and snow merge together while the sun creates a beautiful rainbow crossing the drops of water

The weather is so changeable and can easily give spectacular shows like this one

One of the hundreds of minor waterfalls nourished by the melting snow.

Ice caves inside glaciers are a common event: this is one of the few that you can visit inside. The colour of the ice changes according to its thickness and depth

Amazing landscape in which the two faults (the Euroasian one and the American one) are clearly visible (on the left).

One of the most suggestive natural phenomena: northern lights! Of course, the photo cannot catch the real beauty of this incredible phenomenon!
