That is so beautiful!
Iceland really has its own kind of calm magic.

A true hidden gem! What a wonderful hike it was to find it!
I just love the symmetry of this beautiful waterfall.
The photo is so lovely. It gives me such a fresh feeling with that lush green moss in the foreground and the swirling water in the plunge. It almost makes me want to jump in for a dip.

Haha, the wind—right! 😂
Sometimes it feels like a full-on march in place.

Yes, it truly is! Being there has such a wonderful effect on me. It’s as if my whole being shifts into a slower, gentler pace, giving both body and soul the space they need.

Kerlingarfjöll - the colours, the light, the stillness

The quiet power of these mountains reminds me of what´s worth holding close to your heart.

A softly shaped mountain landscape in different shades of brown with small patches of green moss scattered across the slopes. A beam of sunlight falls on a small area , while the rest lies under grey clouds. The light adds a gentle contrast to the scene.

The many small creeks that flow into Iceland’s Kolgrafafjörður help create some foreground interest when viewed from above.

Many small creeks flow through green fields to an Icelandic fjord. There are mountains in the background and the sky is filled with dark clouds that have taken on a blue tone.

Such a beautiful photo!
That wonderful landscape with the kind of light that only exists in Iceland, a scene that brings a quiet peace to the soul.
Nature's depth is hard to grasp, but through your eyes it becomes something I can feel.

There’s something about Iceland that slows me down in the best way.
Ófærufoss made me pause - it's not just a waterfall, it's a feeling that finds its way to your heart.

A wide landscape view of Ófærufoss waterfall in Iceland. The silvery water flows through 3 distinct sections, cascading over dark volcanic cliffs in gentle stages. Each tier is framed by soft, lush green moss and earthy brown rock. Above, a pale grey sky casts a muted light over the scene, creating a calm, expansive atmosphere. The image evokes stillness, depth, and quiet awe.

What a sense of calm… the glassy lake, the green moss, and the gentle mountains.
For a moment, I’m back, in the midst of this wonderful landscape, with that special light that exists only in Iceland.
Stunning photo!

A couple of weeks ago, I had the joy of traveling around Iceland with landscape photographer Timothy Keeney.
His photos hold such beauty and soul, it's pure magic.✨
Take a moment to look at his work, it's truly a gift!

A photographer stands in an open, rolling landscape, carefully guiding his drone. In front of him, his camera is set up on a tripod.
The ground is covered in lush, green mos and in the distance soft, rounded mountains rise.
The sky is blanketed with light grey clouds, creating a gentle light over the scene.

This looks so dreamy and peaceful.... the clouds and the light....the calm water.
You capture Iceland in the most beautiful ways! Wonderful photo!

Nina Persmo 🇸🇪 @ninapersmo.bsky.social · 14d

Finally got to see it in all its glory!
Swirling water, lovely memories😌
Can't get enough of Iceland!

The colours, the steam, the rawness, and the light – all coming together to create a beauty that exists only at Kerlingarfjöll.
A quiet reminder of nature's grandeur.

A view of a softly rolling mountain landscape with a touch of snow on the highest peaks. Colorful rhyolite mountains with shifting brown tones rise among white steam clouds rising from the ground. There are also spots of light grey-blue and yellow from minerals. Everything is framed by soft light from a grey sky.

Yesterday I returned from two weeks in Iceland, but before leaving, I squeezed in a drone flight for some abstract river shots. Here, runoff from mineral-rich soil mixes with river water to make a spectrum of greens, yellows, and oranges.

Some beauty touches the heart more quietly than the eye can see, carrying moments of shared wonder.
A little corner of the Icelandic nature that gently holds your soul, leaving memories of journeys that linger.

A smaller waterfall in Iceland. Water swirls and cascades between moss-covered slopes with touches of red blueberry bushes. The sky is soft grey, creating a peaceful scene.

Agree!
We're having a clear sky tonight and just hope for a good, negative BZ.🤞🤞
Not returning the car until tomorrow morning.

Blueberry bushes started turning red two weeks ago, they will be perfect next week.☺️

Lovely photo! Nice to see the beautiful colour of the water, so unexpected in that grey, vast landscape. Visited there in March with lots of snow and blue sky.
Hope you'll have a great trip next week!
At the airport hotel right now, flying home tomorrow. Already starting to plan the next trip back
