Skaftafell and the rest of it

As Jökulsárlón was our furthest destination, on the way back to our cabin (pictured below) we stopped for a hike in Skaftafell National Park, where the highlights were Svartifoss and a walk out to Skaftafellsjökull (Skafatfell Glacier).

Friday night was extremely clear, and around 11-midnight, we saw the northern lights.  My camera couldn’t do it justice, but our friend Beer got some great images, a couple of which I’m including here.

Sunday we headed back to Reykjavík and I snapped some images of the vastly varying weather conditions and landscape, as well as at the Skógar Folk Museum, a stop on our trip home.

It was a breathtaking weekend adventure, from which I gleaned much artmaking fodder.
