The magic of Iceland

My world for a day - Helgafell My world for a day - Helgafell

My world for a day - Helgafell 

We had beautiful weather last Sunday, newly fallen snow and sunshine so I packed the camera and walked into the back land behind Hafnarfjörður where I live.

I could have been alone in the world, in this wide expanse of snow and lava, it was wonderful to totally disconnect from the daily life and enjoy the total quiet of the place and the warmth of the sun.

This is Helgafell.

Æ hvað það er nú fallegt að hafa þessa liti í kringum sig, nýfallinn hvítan snjó, bláann himinn og sólina - æði :o)

Æ já, þetta hvítbláa veröld er æðisleg! en ég hlakka nú samt svakalega til sumarsins ;o)

Really beautiful, you have done well to control the flare in this image. Love how you have captured that feeling of solitude. Days like these give me happy attacks.

Thank you David, I could have been all alone in the world out there... neither a sound nor a sign of another human being...

Mord has replied to Pixie
I am so jealous and wish I had been with you and of course I would have trampled the snow, built bridges and buildings, thrown snow balls and generally destroyed the silence :)

Maður gerir sér ekki alveg grein fyrir stærðarhlutföllunum. Þetta virkar dálítið eins og þú hafir verið búin að labba marga kílómetra! Ekki er námusvæði bak við Helgafellið, við Krýsuvíkurveg? Held ég viti hvar þetta er, en er ekki alveg viss :o)

Pixie has replied to Oddur Jonsson
Helgafell liggur ca. 5 km. frá Bláfjallaafleggjaranum á Krýsuvíkurvegi... en ég lagði af stað frá Kaldárseli fyrir ofan Hafnarfjörð og hef líklega verið búin að labba ca. 2 km. þarna :o) ... og þar sem ég stend er ca. 1 km. yfir að Helgafellinu sjálfu :o) Þyrfti að sýna þér þetta á korti, fann bara ekkert nógu gott á netinu ;o)

Glæsilegt :) Tekið beint á móti sólu en samt þetta góð birta í allri myndinni. Þarna hlýtur þú að hafa notað nýja takkann þinn :)

Pixie has replied to Gunnsteinn Jonsson
Takk Gunnsteinn, held reyndar að ég hafi ekki notað takkann þarna... en ég var með fókusinn á Helgafellinu og það virðist hafa virkað þrátt fyrir sólina beint á móti. Það kom mér á óvart hvað þessi kom vel út :o)
