Seljalandsfoss Windbow

2015-01-10 By Roger

Wind-blasted Seljalandsfoss

Recipe for wondrous delight:  Take one of the most captivating waterfalls in the world and add wind–specifically, a very strong, gale-force, southwest wind–and behold  the vast and elegantly tempestuous spectacle of spray from a place of stable standing.  We visited Seljalandsfoss thrice, each time witnessing a new facet to its personality.  This certainly was the wildest.  At the top, some of the spray can be seen blowing back over the ledge, hydrating the greenery above the falls!

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
