Iceland's so called 'Secret' Waterfall, which is probably no secret for photographers. Seljalandsfoss is the more popular of the two and the crowds will gravitate to it. This is called Gljúfrabúi or Gljúfurárfoss and is situated at Hamragarðar, a short walk along from the better known Seljalandsfoss waterfall. The Seljalandsfoss waterfall is on the south coast about halfway between Selfoss and Vik on Iceland's 'Ring Road' (Route 1) You'll see Seljalandsfoss falls plainly from the ring road. Once you are there you take photos with the crowd of the main falls (beautiful), then walk left. You'll need waterproof boots, trousers, and jacket. You can not avoid being totally soaked. To take this shot you have to use a waterproof camera cover, use an umbrella to cover the front of your lens, clean/dry the lens and take a shot, repeat & rinse ;) Finally, you then layer photos to remove water droplets.
