That's a nice shot but if it were mine I would crop a some off the bottom. What's it like over there in November? Are the roads passable? I was thinking about going there next month.

@JohnC -- thanks. I was there for a week, Nov. 15-21. Great time to be there. . .few tourists outside of Reykjavik and the Golden Circle. The days are short, however -- Sunrise 10am, sunset 4pm. Low temps ranged from about 9(f) degrees in the highlands to 45(f) or so in Reykjavik on the last day. We had one morning of heavy snow and very low visibility on the north side of the Snaefellsnes Peninsula. Be prepared for wind. . .20-30 mph was common. First day at Jokulsarlon we had temps of about 25(f) and 40mph wind blowing down off the glacier. We also had a couple of harrowing hours on the road one night in the East Fjords when winds were sustained at about 45-50 mph and gusting to 60mph and blowing snow made visibility just about nil. Second day at Jokulsarlon was perfectly still and temps around 30. Feel free to PM me if you'd like more info.

You must have been there the same day as me at Jökulsárlón because I have the same picture of that clear iceberg!

First and last really stand out.
First for the wonderful pastel blue-pink play and last for the unusual (at least to me) clear iceberg.
On my bucket list.

nice set!

fourth is particularly striking

fifth too although i might have composed it just slightly differently, but it's tricky since you want that ice to pop against the dark

Great set, the first 3 are the strongest imo. I especially like the scene of #3, and it looks like it would be great for some more intimate shots. The contrast between the dark blue water and snow is awesome. I need to get here someday.
