Magical Mountain
by John and Tina Reid
A mountain range catches the evening light and seems to glow over the Lon valley in the East Fjords of Iceland.

I like the cloud on the top of the mountain; Iceland seems a very interesting place.

A beautiful place perfectly captured. I love the angle you chose, highlighting the small clumps of grass in the foreground and then that majestic mountain. Great job! Iceland has splendorous landscapes. Can’t wait to get back there for another visit.

Thanks for comments everyone. The Eastfjords of Iceland seems to get less attention from photographers and I suspect that has something to do with the fog. In 6 days there, we had about an hour with enough clarity to shoot wide landscapes, but when it came, it was worth the wait.
Victoria Shelton
Perfect title for this magical image.

Impressive part of the world, and so very nicely captured here.

This is not what most people think of as Iceland. I like this image–could be straight out of a science fiction movie/strange creatures lurking in the fog at the peak………….Thanks for your patience–a shot worth the wait.

Cory Marder

Great picture! The mountain is named “Austurhorn,” Icelandic for “East point,” and it is the focus of my Master’s geological research
. A magical place indeed!!
