This shot was taken last winter in March 2014, when we had lots of snow here in Reykjavik. I went to Grotta and walked around the spit of land for an hour and got some great shots.
Grotta is a spit of land in Seltjarnarnes, a neighboring town of ReykjavÃk, which turns into an island at high tide. During low tide one can reach Grotta on foot and stay there for approximately six hours before the isthmus is flooded. The first lighthouse in Grotta was built in 1897 and the current one dates back to 1947. The original lens is still in use and the lighthouse was electrified in 1956.
