The adage is true: you can't have a rainbow without the rain.
Located in Thingvellir National Park, a site where you can see the North American and European tectonic plates moving apart (if you're very patient).
The top of the falls is on the North American plate, while the bottom is on the European.
Outside Reykjavik's Harpa Center.
Reykjavik's center for performing arts.
The falls are called Kirkjufellfoss.
The black church, overlooking Budavik (Buda Bay).
Near the town of Arnastapi.
Pretty much the whole town.
A morning sun highlighted Kirkjufell and the falls for about 10 minutes before disappearing behind the clouds again.
Near the Gerduberg basalt columns (which we did not find very impressive).
Icelanders apparently have a thing about trolls.
I don't know what an Icelandic troll is supposed to look like, but it looked to me like a mythical creature drinking from the ocean.
Along the Ring Road outside the town of Blonduos.
Sunset at the Fall of the Gods.
From atop the east side of the falls.
