Toll dort auch so einen schwarzen Lapilli-Lavastrand zu sehen - wie auf Stromboli...
(Nur nicht so warm... ((•‿•)) )

Schönen Dank, Udo! Nee, baden sollte man da nicht, allein schon wegen der Strömungen.....Aber Steinchen sammeln macht Spaß!

Beautiful images and a very practical-looking lighthouse, Gudrun.

Gudrun club has replied to tiabunna club
Thanks a lot, George! Lighthouses in Iceland usually are on the practical side and no higher than needed;-)

An unusual looking lighthouse (but of course this may be the norm for Iceland)b but it stands out nicely against the sky along with all it aerials. I really like the cloud formations too and the view across the lagoon is gorgeous.

I like the image in the PiP as well........it's always good to get a little more perspective.

Gudrun club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thank you so much, Keith! I have seen similar lighthouses elsewhere in Iceland, they are all quite functional. I guess the tall ones would be difficult in a storm.

das ist ja mal ein funktionaler Leuchtturm - und Mopeds auch ncoh.
Schön!

Gudrun club has replied to Boarischa Krautmo club
Schönen Dank, Markus! Das war eine ganze Gruppe, die da unterwegs war:-) Funktional ist Standard in Island, die müssen dem Wetter widerstehen (heute z.B. fast im ganzen Land rote Wetterwarnung, Gefahr von Stromausfällen, man soll daheimbleiben;-)

Die Farbe ist etwas ungewöhnlich - für einen Leuchtturm!

Gudrun club has replied to volker_hmbg club
Herzlichen Dank, Volker! Ja, Leuchttürme sind dort oben halt ein bissle anders;-)

The sky looks like liquid. Most lighthouse here are white, or red with white stripes, and those in Norway have red tops. This is an unusual colour. The mountain rane in the background is lovely. I also like the PiP showing the lack beach and the remoteness of the area.

Gudrun club has replied to Amelia club
Thanks very much, Amelia! Icelandic lighthouses tend to be mainly functional and not higher than is strictly necessary, with the colour they went a bit overboard here;-)
The area isn't quite as remote as it looks, it's on the ring road!

Interessant - eine ungewöhnliche Form für einen Leuchtturm.

Gudrun club has replied to Percy Schramm club
Schönen Dank, Percy! In Island ist das nichts Ungewöhnliches, die klassische Leuchtturmform hat's dort eher selten.
