The Golem (Iceland Day 8)

On the eighth day (almost done folks!) we made a stop at a very beautiful spot.

The dirt trail, the interesting mounds of dried grass, the sea and mountains in the back make for an interesting composition. I wonder why the dried grass clumps like that.

Those people are taking another path down to the beach. We stayed on the cliffs above the beach and it was a very short hike to the overlook where we would see a gorgeous overview of the beach.

The lone rock structure towering above the rest of the beach. If I didn't know any better I'd say some nasty spell turned a monster into stone as punishment for eternity.

And if you zoom in, there appears to be someone meditating on the middle of the island. At least according to my imagination.

This place is called Hvitserkur.

Another shot, with some light effects.

I really like this shot of a stream snaking its way to the bay. And again with the mountains in the distance.

In the back to can see the people that took the other route down. It's possible to get down from here but it's a bit of a steep trail.

We enjoyed the view from above and didn't bother going down to the bottom. Most of us aren't hikers.

That was a brief stop with a light hike, some deep conversations, some giggling and hopping, snapping photos, and back to the car we went. Did I say deep conversations? Nevermind, not really. Though wandering around these landscapes certainly gave us plenty of time to ponder life.
