Dramatic view of a tall waterfall cascading into a tranquil pool surrounded by mossy rocks and open plains at sunset, likely Seljalandsfoss in Iceland.

Seljalandsfoss is the Icelandic waterfall you can walk behind — a 60-meter curtain of water falling from a former sea cliff, a path carved into the basalt behind the fall that puts you inside the sound and the spray with the open sky and the Icelandic summer evening behind you, looking out. This image was made from behind the curtain in the late evening of a June day when Iceland's midnight sun extends the golden hour into something indefinite — the light arriving from a sun that was not setting so much as declining to set. The panoramic format captures the full arc of the fall's curtain from inside, the water translucent in the evening light. Iceland in June offers a quality of light that simply does not exist at lower latitudes, and Seljalandsfoss frames it perfectly.
