My journey to Iceland in July and August, 2015, consisted of:
- 3 nights in Reykjavik
- 2 nights in Skogar
- 2 nights near Jokulsarlon
- 3 nights near Lake Myvatn
- 3 nights in Holmavik
- 2 nights in Alftanes
In total, I took over 8900 photographs of this delightful and stunning country. It’s taking me a bit of time to go through and process them all, but I will get there eventually.
Below are several of the photographs I took in Landmannalaugar and along the southeast coast of Iceland. The other stops will follow, one post at a time. Thank you for enjoying!

Gorgeous! I see some sheep, but is it true there aren’t any chickens on Iceland? 🙂

We saw chickens – we also ate some, so there had to be SOME somewhere 🙂

Darnation, foiled again! Someone told me there were no chickens there, but after googling it, there even seems to be a special breed called the Islandic chicken. Hmpf.
