Waterfall and snowfall

Skógafoss in a snow storm. The waterfall cascades over a cliff marking the former coastline, which is now 5 km away. South Iceland. I've never been anywhere before where the saying 'if you don't like the weather than wait 5 minutes' was more true than in Iceland. The weather changed from sunny and calm to cloudy and windy to raining or snowing in the blink of an eye. BTW this is colour shot, although how can you tell :-)

Wayne, I have some microfibre cloths that I drape over the camera and lens and whip them off to take a photo and put then right back on. Works in snow and light rain since the microfibre can absorb a lot of moisture (and is a lot more user friendly than plastic)

    A good sense of the size of the waterfall and the environmental conditions with your capture of the snow flakes.

    Amazing view of the snowfall and the waterfall, all at the same time! I thought the "5 minute rule" of weather was quite apt in Edmonton, but I think Iceland beats that!
