River Curves

A storm forecast, our flight cancelled. If it hadn't been, we would never have seen this serene scene.

Following the swift river upstream, we paused where the early light kissing the clouds was reflected in the icy waters.

Facing south; dawn at 10:30am in mid-November over Núpufellshnjúkur in Eyjafjarðarsveit, north-eastern .

Zoom in to view this at 100% if you can, it's very detailed.

A snow scene, with mountains in the distance. A river runs from centre left of the shot, winding its way towards the right and then down to the bottom centre left. The riverbanks are covered in snow and ice. Above a distant pointed mountain with the sunrise kissing its peak, a bank of cloud angles up from the right centre to the top left in a triangular wedge. It's lit by the rising sun in soft shades of orange and peach. The sky above it is hazy with icy cloud, and the flowing river below reflects the sunrise and sky.
