We did a motorcycle trip around the entire country of Iceland, and this was one of our stops. Despite this place having quite a few tourists around it, I managed to line up the shot so that only my friend was in it as he was taking a shot. The waterfall was deafening, so he didn't even know I took this until I showed it to him, and it took a couple shots to get right since he was moving and it was a 4 second exposure. I felt like having a person in the photo added a good sense of scale to the place...

I have one from Godafoss in here too. Always tricky keeping people out without staying there all day collecting exposures. Nice shot!

Thanks! We actually gave up pretty quickly because of that, and moved on to less crowded areas. But since it was my first time there, my friend insisted we stop for me to see it.
