Skógafoss waterfall in the southern part of Iceland is about 60 metres high. The erosion (mainly from the glacier rivers) formed a flat plain a few kilometres wide and moved the shoreline south. From these plains the mountains of the highlands rise rather abruptly, allowing for many beautiful waterfalls. This one is special because of its straight edge.

Psalm 91 1 He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty. 2 I will say of Yahweh, "He is my refuge and my fortress; my God, in whom I trust." 3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the deadly pestilence. 4 He will cover you with his feathers. Under his wings you will take refuge. His faithfulness is your shield and rampart. 5 You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day; 6 nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that wastes at noonday. 7 A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it will not come near you.....

I know it was an overcast day, but I feel it's a little dark, but what a gorgeous fall. I want to see the water at the end.. :)PJ

Wow! What an amazing picture! Great depth, rich color and great detail and clarity. I can almost feel the mist from the falls and hear it crash over the edge!
