The pseudo-crater Skútustaðagígar at the beautiful Lake Myvatn in North Iceland was formed by steam explosions over a lava flow. I find the contrast between the yellowish grasses and the deep black volcanic ash particularly attractive. The sweeping view across the lake to the snow-capped mountains is magnificent.

Capturing the dynamics of the Atlantic waves together with the blocks of ice from the glacier lagoon is an exciting endeavour. When searching for motifs, never lose sight of the waves, which are regularly particularly strong. Then it's time to seek safe ground for a short time.

The beautiful contrast of jet-black lava sand to the swell and the snow-capped mountains in the background makes this image particularly appealing to me. The Atlantic waves run out on the flat shore area and thus serve as a mirror for the majestic mountain range.

Accompanied by a constant crackling sound, the lava slowly but inexorably flows out of the fissure. The heat can still be felt some distance away. The magma gradually solidifies in the morning air. New layers of rock are constantly being laid on top of each other. Watching this natural spectacle up close is an unforgettable experience.

I was particularly impressed by this location. In the foreground the large stones surrounded by water, then the wide bay in which the waves steadily run up on the black lava sand beach and in the background the majestic mountain range. All this offered an imposing impression, which I have captured in this picture.

Blue ice blocks of all sizes lie on the black lava beach in southern Iceland. They come from the Vatnajökull glacier and are washed out of the Jökulsárlón glacier lagoon onto the offshore black lava beach by the forces of the ebb and flow of the tide. There they are exposed to the wild surf of the Atlantic. Little by little they melt away.
