 Taken at Þingvellir - this is Öxárfoss as many of you know already. This waterfall has been here at DPC many times before BUT it is constantly changing...


After voting -----

Jehey - did NOT expect a blue ribbon when this one was entered!!! First time for me taking my camera to this waterfall in Þingvellir.
Every Icelander (well almost) goes to Þingvellir every once in a while and there have been a few pictures submitted to DPC from there WHCH made me think that you would think "sigh, once again" BUT I am so happy that was not the case here :o) :o)

THANKS!! to all of you that voted, it has been a very exciting week :o)

The composition of the picture is done very well. The water looks as if it would feel silky.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I like how the ice and water meet
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/03/2008 02:11:32 AM
This is a super cool (no pun intended) shot. It had to be a tricky exposure as well with the water being in the shadow and not blowing out the sky. I wonder if you used a graduated n/d filter?

Nice work; high marks.

This must have been shot at a slooow shutter speed. The cloud like water is a very nice touch.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/02/2008 04:39:26 PM
Super-cool! Too bad the sky is blown out.
