Isolated church in Budir, Snaefellsnes Peninsula, West Iceland
I really love this photo from my last trip to Iceland. We came to this spot for a second time, first time it was really windy and rainy. But second time it was amazingly calm, So I was just patiently sitting on the edge of Londrangar cliffs and watching a beginning of a new day. #Adventure #iceland #londrangar #nature #powerofocean #ocean #sunrise
Classic red-roofed church on a hill.
We came late in the evening to a Londrangar cliffs. It was lit just by the moon and it was really spectacular. Waves crusing, clouds fast moving and beautiful moon light. #Adventure #nature #nightshot #iceland #landscape #londrangar #ocean #waves #travel
