I've been wanting to take this picture ever since I first visited Iceland and learnt that you can get behind the waterfall at Seljalandsfoss. The opportunity presented itself on my last trip to Iceland a week or so ago. It was getting late in the evening, around 11pm, but when I saw it looked like it was going to be a nice sunset, I set off for the falls.
The spray behind the falls was extremely intense and within a couple of minutes, I was soaked as was all my equipment. Somehow I managed a few shots that were free of the splattering of water droplets that covered the majority of pictures when I looked at them later.
