 Taken on a camping vacation last weekend. The nights are not yet fully dark here in Iceland. The after sunset/before sunrise twilight lasts hours is perfect for long exposure river shooting. Spent most of the night shooting various waterfalls but I found this small creek rapids the most interesting.

The night was cold even though its still mid summer here in Iceland. My sleeping bag had frost roses on it just after I went to sleep.
