Selfoss by RyanBuchanan



Just upriver from Dettifoss lies the lesser known falls—Selfoss. The walk up to this point is absolutely incredible with walls of falls the entire way up. From what I hear, many people don't even venture the short hike up river which is hard to believe. This whole area is like walking on another planet. This particular shot was made at midnight in incredibly windy, cold conditions. I literally had to block with wind with my body while holding the tripod down with my body weight right on the edge of the falls. Luckily, this was one of the few sharper shots. I like the warm sunlight on the falls and the rocky edge with the reflective pool. If the conditions wouldn't have been so brutal I could've spent hours here with the falls, rocks and reflective pools all around.
