5am, Gullfoss, Iceland. I'd woken at 4am to my alarm clock and an indescribable sunrise. Sleeping next to the falls, I simply dressed and was off. I took so many photos this morning! the sun rises straight down the top of the falls, as shown here, creating such a golden colour and double rainbows at the bottom. Incredible. As with so many other places in Iceland, if you're there at the right time, the whole experience feels so surreal and dreamlike. Unforgettable.

James this 10 image just showed up in my voting booth and I'm glad it did. This is art at its best.

This is so beautiful. I could never stand up that early and I have to admit, that I could never do such a beautiful picture. Great, great and simply great.

Your visits in my galerie are always welcome. Today I've posted "Saints" - my first try with the zoom of my new camera (Remember, had only a mobile phone before)

Even better than the rainbow is the early morning light tripping over the water.
