SteemitPhotoChallenge Entry - Plane Wreck

Walked about 8km to see this abandoned plane in the middle of a black sand beach in Iceland. Was absolutely surreal.

The story behind it is in 1973 a United States Navy Douglas Super DC-3 airplane was forced to land here (Sólheimasandur) after experiencing some severe icing. Thankfully, all the crew members managed to survive, but his doesn't make the place any less chilling.
