Gorgeous photo. I can't find anything wrong with it. Just really like it. The colour are so nice and natural. Great detail in the mountain. The road is like a ribbon. Very well done.

Frábær landslagsmynd. Vegurinn gerir mikið fyrir mynd uppbygginguna. Skerpan ótrúleg (L gler, 1D Mii?) Ãrnalykt af þessu.... Flábært.

Okay, that does it. I have seen many beautiful pictures of Iceland, including this one. I've gotta go.

I like the composition. The hills under the road with the lines in the field running perpendicular to the road is powerful. Sunlight contrasted with shadow and the darkening sky is very nice. The contrast in scale (foreground and background) is nice. Well done. Among my top picks.

That looks like a bumpy ride.
I see some great photo's of iceland from some great photographers. I didn't know it was so beautifull, in my mind it was all ice snow and geisers...
Maybe have to visit there once...

Well taken, but the colors of this shot are just not very appealing to me. Light and shadow are intereresting. I think I would have liked this better in black and white. 6.

Right from National Geographic, as the comment goes :) Beautiful lines and colors. Starting with an 8.

Beautiful terrain. I like the way the light hits it.

Nice landscape. It just doesn't reach out and grab me tho.

This is a very good shot with IMO a rather lame title. I like the shadow in the foreground and the road really makes good balance with the mountain and helps to create scale to the viewer.

Yes...adorable landscape... looks familiar... was surfing internet once for such. Good capture of lights and colors.
