Iceland Trip Blog Post: http://store.noahbryant.net/pages/iceland-blog

According to Norse folklore, trolls are nature beings who live as families in rock formations, mountains and caves. They cannot be out in daylight lest they turn to stone. According to Icelandic legend, one night, many years ago, three trolls named Skessudrangur, Laddrangur and Langhamar were trying to pull a three masted ship ashore near the present day village of Vík í Mýrdal. It was a large ship that gave them quite a bit of trouble, and before they knew it, the rising sun turned them into stone. Today, this rock formation is called called Reynisdrangar.

The first thing that jumps to view is that the horizon is not horizontal.
I am surprised that such a perfect photograph has "escaped" that detail.

Nice atmosphere, sure, but inclined horizon should have been straightened (that always means water horizon, not the haze above it).
Have a Good Light!
