Absolutely gorgeous ! And inspiring and enthusing, as I am planning 5-6 weeks for my 4th trip to Iceland this Summer, much of it in the Highlands.
I'll be reading your blog posts most assiduously !
Parul, Jung, Sunny, and Kevin - thank you very much.
Kevin - here's wishing you a highly productive time in Iceland.

Mesmerizing and beautiful shots! I had to see each of them again. Curious, are these drone shots or shots from an scenic flight plane?
Thanks, Shashank.
These were taken from a bigger drone, aka helicopter.
Also - the Icelandic Highlands are very well mapped. However, the drivable routes only cover a small portion of the area. The vast majority of the terrain is only accessible by hiking or from the air.
What a fun set. The colors are so strong, but don’t feel overcooked - tough to do that so well. Difficult to pick a favorite but probably #1 by a nose.

Scott - Thank you.
The Saturation slider wasn't molested :-). In the introduction to the series on my blog, I had written this:
This series aims to collect a new class of visual objects under one umbrella. These are not the familiar attractions spelled out on the map – the dreamlike mountains, lava fields, volcanic craters, waterfalls, lakes, and rivers – that define Hálendið (“The Highlands”). Rather, these are transient landforms or an innominate tranche of the landscape that, under certain conditions, make you think you are under the spell of Photoshop sorcery.
Check out this image of the same location taken by another photographer some years ago -
