Last night I stayed at the hostel in Vagnassta\u00f0ir. The night was clear, and the Northern Lights made their appearance at about 10:30pm. I made a couple of images at the roadside, about 2kms from the hostel.<\/p>\n

The display of lights were much more spectacular then the image from Laugarvatn.<\/p>\n

After making these images, I returned to the hostel to help out some of the other guests who were attempting to make images of the northern lights. My settings were 400 iso, 30 seconds, f\/5.6.<\/p>\n

This morning, I headed out to Jokullsarlon for sunrise. The icebergs flow out of the lagoon to sea and are then washed up onto the beach. In this image, I positioned the camera so that the rising sun shines through the iceberg.<\/p>\n

This afternoon, I headed in to H\u00f6fn to pick up some groceries. On the return trip, I spotted some Icelandic horses at the roadside. This white horse caught my attention.<\/p>\n

As I moved around, I caught this image of the pony peeking over another horse.<\/p>\n
