Black Road Mid-February, and we're crossing the north of Iceland for a 16 day tour. The weather has been kind to us; cold and snowing, of course, but we expected that. What we didn't expect was how stunningly beautiful the landscape can become when covered in snow and ice. The ever-changing light adds to the appeal. Even the storms are spectacularly beautiful, if properly respected. Vatnsdalsfjall in Húnabyggð, north-western Iceland. #MountainsMonday #Iceland #Photography

Lentoid Mid-August, and a lovely warm day with a brisk wind coming in from the southern ocean. The moisture-laden wind was lifted by the coastal mountains and met the glaciers, head-on. The rapid cooling and strong air movement created huge lenticular clouds all along the south coast. Very brief, but absolutely magical. Miðfell on the right and Vestrahorn - known erroneously as Stokksnes - near the centre, in south-eastern Iceland. #WeatherPhotography #MountainsMonday #Iceland #Photography

Golden Crown 15:30 late afternoon, mid-November in eastern Iceland, and the sun is setting in the south-west. Looking north across Berufjörður, the mountains behind us are casting shadows onto the peaks on the opposite side of the fjord. Gradually they have crept up the faces of the mountains, and I have watched, spellbound. A bizarre mountain named Stöng has a strange spiked pinnacle. For a perfect moment, only the very tip of it is sunset-lit. #MountainsMonday #Iceland #Photography

Going Round The Bend A drizzly day as we made our way south down Gemlufallsdalur valley towards Dýrafjörður fjord in the Westfjords of Iceland. Flatafjall (469m) is ahead of us. #MountainsMonday #Iceland2025 #LandscapePhotography #Photography #Iceland
