Apparently I'm not the only one who gets excited about waterfalls!
But then wouldn't you be, if you made it to the end of the rainbow?
This was actually a candid photo taken at Skogafoss in Iceland. As anyone who has been there in the daytime knows, Skogafoss is not exactly a secret. There are always people milling around the falls, coming and going with their cameras, but I was lucky to be taking a photo from a good distance when one of the tourists started taking jumping photos. I've done jumping photos myself many times in the past, but I've never purposefully photographed a stranger doing it...until now.
Full disclosure: there were other people in the photo down by the base of the falls, but I removed them using Photoshop to change the feeling of the image - I don't want this to be a photo of tourists in Iceland, I want this to be about someone achieving the impossible: finding the treasure at the end of the rainbow!
For #WaterfallWednesday, hosted by @mibriet-photo!
Beyond the beauty of the picture - enjoyed your quote achieve the impossible, find the treasure at the end of the rainbow

It's true, you are the only person who has never visited Iceland.
You're also the only person who can still visit Iceland for the first time, and that is a precious thing! :D

Cool, it's indeed a "killer" shot! I mean to me it's more like he's being killed by a rainbow saber instead of finding the treasure at the end of it! :D I like your photos and posts, they never failed to make me laugh, hahaha...

It could be someone finding treasure at the end of the rainbow. Or, if you are an Angry Birds fan, it could be someone hurdling down from the sky, and is about to explode when it hits the ground... :)
Amazing picture man.

Been there last summer, there wasn't a single day without a waterfall on Iceland :D
For me, they are magical, so I could just sit nearby and look at them for hours...
Great pic btw ;)

What a glorious sight! I have Irish heritage and have always wanted to visit. I will probably never get there, but through the magic of photography I can see it with my own two eyes. Thanks for posting this.
