#1 Iceland: Ice and Volcanoes [NSF56K]
Posted: Wed Sep 23, 2009 4:01 am
I spent 5 day straight hiking in Iceland, and 2 days in the Capital city of Reykjaavic. It rained heavily for most of the time, there wasn't any electricity, and roving bands of pillaging vikings limited my picture taking, but a few hours of sun allowed for superb pictures in that beautiful land.
Tolkien based LOTR on Iceland and it's volcanic obsidian ash covered landscape. One can see why Peter Jackson wanted to shoot the movie there.
