Geothermal activity....looks so surreal...
The mighty Dettifoss Falls, said to be the most powerful waterfalls in Europe. We were lucky to see them as the road to the other side of the falls was closed due to the recent seismic activity in the area.
The Selfoss falls, which are 1.4 km down river from Dettifoss...I try to have a person in these photos to give perspective...the falls are so enormous ...the colour of the water is a muddy grey ...
Pete took this photo, we were so happy to see the sun and the rainbow....at Dettifoss Falls.
Further downstream a couple of kilometres are the Hafragilsfoss Falls and wonderful views of the canyon.
Asbyrgi...an amazing amphitheatre of rock...caused by an enormous glacial flash flood thousands of years ago. In the middle of the photo is a viewing platform, I am hoping it gives you some idea of just how huge these cliffs are..
