The Mountain Coast-Color - a photo on Flickriver

            An early morning view of the mountains and glaciers on coast heading back to Reykjavik from outside our hotel in the south eastern city of Hofn. It was still pretty dark around me even though the sun was lighting up the mountains.

The road hugs the coastline as you travel along the Vatnajokull National Park's mountains. The landscape's appearance is constantly changing with weather conditions and time of day. In every case it is a visual feast of breathtaking beauty.

Captured Oct. 24, 2014 with an Olympus em10.  Edited this morning on the desktop. 

First in Photoshop to create the pano  from 9 images and fix where needed.  

Then using Nik's Viveza and Color Efex Pro plugins for image adjustments and fine tuning.
Back in to photoshop for other blending, masks and a few more repairs and then a frame.

I have a black and white version that I also like a lot. It was hard to decided with to post. I will probably post it sometime in the future.

Note: I placed the photo on the map where it was taken. Not on the mountains.

Taken in: Ísland / Auster-Skaftafellssysla / Höfn (show map)
