Arriving at Gullfoss, a big waterfall

There are upper and lower trails. This is the end of the lower trail

Admiring Gullfoss from the lower trail

You really feel the power of water

Many portraits and selfies taken along this trail

Looking back at the start of the lower trail

Constant rainbows from mist produced by the water falling into the 105 foot crevice

Superwide action: I am standing right next to Ben, you can see my shadow next to his (both saluting)

Mist collecting on the front element of the fisheye lens

Going up the trail to the parking lot

At the crevice, source of much mist

Superwide view of the crevice.

Going over the edge would make for a bad day

DSLRs are very popular in Iceland (Looks like traditional Icelandic clothing with a traditional Icelandic DSLR.)

Upper falls at Gullfoss, from the end of the lower path.

Quite a range of coats, light to heavy. Here are some heavy ones.

Middle set of falls going to the crevice, superwide

Superwide action shot! :)

Contemplating on photographers and falling water

More portraits being taken

Ben shooting the crevice as we go back up the trail

This was what he was seeing

More excellent rainbow action

Rainbows again (Gullfoss waterfall, Iceland. One of the attractions on the Golden Circle route we drove in our rented Kia.)

Plaque commemorating Sigríður Tómasdóttir, who worked hard to preserve this site from development.

Details about Sigríður Tómasdóttir, at the junction of the upper and lower trails

Lower trail viewed from the upper trail

Walking along the crevice

Photographers at work

Crevice from up high

Staring into the crevice

Middle falls next to the lower trail

The pair that was contemplating on photographers is still there! Plenty of photographers as well.

Gazing at Gullfoss

Snowy peaks of Iceland in the distance
