17th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Reynisfjara Beach at Sunrise

We arrived at the beach early in the morning to capture the sunrise. I walked all over the area and captured a lot of different types of images before going after the rocks and the water. I used the tripod to get the water with just a slight bit of motion and silhouette the rocks. I liked photograph the best of the many pictures from this spot.
