Incredible blues in the Brúará river at Brúarfoss, Iceland, July 2013.

This is another image from our trip to Iceland this summer. There are lots of incredible waterfalls in Iceland, but Brúarfoss really stands out in my mind. The blues in the water were absolutely beautiful. Please check out the larger version

Nikon D800, Nikkor 24-120 at 65mm, polarizer, cropped to 9:4
1/6 sec at f/16, ISO 50

I've you haven't seen it yet, check out another of my Iceland images titled "The Photographer" which was selected as the Picture of the Month here at NPN! Thanks NPN!

Great shot here, Scott! I really like this and the pano format works so well here. The greens and blues look super.

The large view is superb. About perfect SS for me and I like the comp and crop.

Terrific image Scott, especially the large version. A land of flowing water and the blues of the water spectacular.

Ah, the turquoise of glacial runnoff! That touch of color really sets off the rest of the image. Congrats on the monthly pick.

Just a compelling image. Your composition is outstanding and the color, water blur and textures are perfect. Just stunning.

Excellent image and beautiful composition. I love the cold colors of the water and the greens that emerge from the stream. Splendid.

Nice, I like this better than some of the wider shots I have seen of here.

Beautiful color contrast in this one. The color of the water is especially incredible. I hope to go here as a treat to myself for my 50th. We'll see!
