Kirkjufell mountan or the church mountain. I hiked early in the morning to do some shots and the sun came just out, to illuminate it a bit. Sea level was low, so i could walk on the coast around it. There is a lot of pictures with the waterfall next on it, but i tried a bit different perspective :)
On my recent trip to Iceland I managed to capture the beauty of this amazing natural waterfall and nearby countryside. Praise God. The world is amazing.
Everything is possible, everything is believable in Iceland.
At our last day we saw a spectacular mountain which is said to be the most photographed mountain in Iceland, and for a very good reason.
This is the iconic shot of Kirkjufell mountain with the Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall in the foreground.
This Gem is one of Iceland’s most photographed locations. I could not miss out on it’s beauty.

I’ve seen so many pictures of this particular mountain in Iceland, but almost all of them capture it from the same perspective. I got lucky enough at 2:30 in the morning to catch a glimpse of the northern lights, which were not supposed to be out this time of year. All the way down by the ocean, my hands completely frozen, this mystical mountain showed a glimpse of beauty that I’ve never seen before.
We took this picture while it was snowing and everyone had left because of the bad weather. The only thing about Iceland is that weather changes every 5 minutes. This was taken during Spring time and there still was snow and walking through waterfalls and streams is not a smart idea. Only do if the picture is going to be epic
They say if you don’t like the weather in Iceland, then just wait 5 minutes and it’ll change. It had been raining sideways basically all morning, so when I pulled off the road to get here I sat in my car thinking the rain would let up at any moment. Well, 45 minuets goes by and it’s still coming down, so I just decide to jump out of the car, shielding my lens from as much water as possible, run up the hill and get the shot. Of course, not long after getting back in the car the rain stops and the sun comes out
There are two ways through life, the way of Nature and the way of Grace. You have to choose which one you’ll follow. Grace doesn’t try to please itself. Accepts being slighted, forgotten, disliked. Accepts insults and injuries. Nature only wants to please itself. Get others to please it too. Likes to lord it over them. To have its own way. It finds reasons to be unhappy when all the world is shining around it. And love is smiling through all things.
It was heavily overcast and threatening rain when we pulled into Grundarfjörður harbour but the sun broke through briefly and illuminated a small farm on the shore.
This incredible mountain is located in the North Western part of Iceland. We went there ending a week long trip around the country and man was this amazing to see with our own eyes. Next time we will try and spend the night there, will probably be cold but no doubt Northern Lights here would be absolutely worth it. Magic!
Probably one of the most photographed spots in #iceland and here is one from my perspective!
Kirkjufell mountain is one of Iceland’s top attractions and quite possibly the most picturesque scene on the Snæfellsnes peninsula in West Iceland. The mountain is right along the road, about 5 minutes outside the town of Grundarfjörður, and this photo was taken by walking down the path on the right side of the Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall as you look up at the mountain.

The Snæfellsnes Peninsula really is Iceland in a nutshell; here some of the most incredible scenes in the whole country can be found. We found this lighthouse on a stormy day, and the drone battled the wind to get up high enough and get the shot.

Snaefellsnes in iceland, the part that also hosts arrow shaped mountain (or as it’s called for non-GoT viewers: Kirkjufell ;)). It not only provides that iconic view but many others, and is a great area just to drive around and be happy :) Buy awesome, limited edtition, photo prints: handpictphoto.com

An incredible, colorful, vibrant sunset in Iceland during the winter months. There are only a few hours of daylight each day which means the sun rises and sets quickly in the afternoon hours. This sunset was one of the most amazing sunsets that we saw during our trip in Iceland. The funny thing about this shot and what makes this shot so amazing is that we were actually on a bus trip that stopped at a 'rest stop' for a 30 minute food break. Instead of eating, I climbed over a railing and went down a hill to get to the incredible scene you're seeing here. Definitely worth it.
