Astonishing is the right word. An amazing place.
Best wishes,

Its just lovely. A nice alternative to the typical Icelandic landscapes we see. I bet that water was cold.

I agree,
Where does the stream come from/ go to, looks as if it should be between the distant rock formations but doesn't appear to

The stream does come out of the canyon - it meanders and further back is obscured by the gravel bar in the mid-distance of the frame. And yes, the water was bloomin' cold. In the sunshine it looked inviting for sore feet, and my better half decided on a paddle. Which lasted about 10 seconds

Epic scale... Great low pov... Half expecting a dinosaur or two to stick their head round the corner...
