Im going to miss these guys!


Last group shot of the trip. Considering our van carried us safely for so many kilometers, it too was part of the group. Off to the Blue Lagoon in the morning before we all split-up and go our separate ways. What a trip it has been! Stay tuned for much more!

More from Jökulsárlón...

Found in Iceland - Our last full day as a group

Our trusty steed on our last day in the wilds of Iceland, seemingly forlorn knowing we will soon be turning it in,  It has once again served us well. Today we begin our trek back to civilization and tomorrow we split ranks and go our separate ways. Some of us heading home and some of us staying on for a few days. Always a sad day on the trek, but there is still much more to come. Stay tuned for more photographs and videos!

A Long Time Coming


I've been trying for this shot nearing 10 years, always passing it by to come back later and then finding it under the tide or in bad weather. This time I jumped on it.
