After a big day of three waterfalls and enjoying autumn colours at Asbyrgi Canyon, we drove onwards to the next town. Husavik is the famous whale-watching capital of Iceland. Since it was quite late in the afternoon, we didn’t manage to do any whale-watching. Instead we walked around the quiet little town and enjoying the golden hour sunlight. These are some of my favourite photos from our walk around town. The golden hour light was spectacular.
Ásbyrgi Canyon, Iceland
After hitting the three waterfalls, we had some time left over to visit Ásbyrgi Canyon in the afternoon. Ásbyrgi is a very large horseshoe-shaped canyon. There are several hiking rials in the canyon. Given we didn’t have a heap of time, we opted for one of the shorter loops. Because we were in the canyon, there were deep shadows and bright highlights in the frame. To get a well exposed shot, I ended up taking 3 different exposures and blending it together in Aurora HDR.
Fuji X Aus Perth Photowalk, June 2018
I had a great time meeting up with our (small) group of Perth Fuji X Aus photographers down in Fremantle on the weekend. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon to be walking around Fremantle. We met up at the entrance of Fremantle Markets and spent a bit of time catching up with fellow photographers and meeting new ones. I always find it so enjoyable getting to chat to others about photography and what we shoot. As always we can count on Fujifilm Australia to send in some cool merchandise to our awesome Perth Reps.
Selfoss and Hafragilsfoss, Iceland
From Dettifoss there were also two nearby waterfalls we visited called Hafragilsfoss and Selfoss. To access Selfoss, you’re walk a relatively short distance from Dettifoss. The path is straight forward enough, but it can be rocky. I quite liked Selfoss, in particular the short curtains of waterfalls.
On the road to Dettifoss, Iceland
After breakfast, we left Seyðisfjörður and made the drive to Dettifoss. Dettifoss is famous for being the most poweful waterfall in Europe. The greyish white falls doesn’t make it a very pretty waterfall, however up close you can feel and hear the thundering noise of the falls. The drive to the falls contained sections of gravel roads which “normal” cars could go on. The drive itself wasn’t particularly green and scenic though. Once you get to the falls, there are two side to view the falls. Since we made the drive there we decided to visit both East and West side.
