Seljalandsfoss, Iceland

Ever since I saw Elia Locardi's shot of Seljalandsfoss, I knew I wanted an image of this waterfall as well! So last week I finally went to Iceland and this one was on my "must do"-list ;-)
Not much room for crazy composition, just go as wide as possible to fit in the rocks, waterfall and sunset.

To get a balanced exposure of both the rocks and the sunset, I braceted from -3 to +2 and used Lightroom 6 new merge to HDR. Afterwards I manually blended the sky from one of the darker exposures to get a more natural image and blended the sunburst from a f22 shot. Finally tweaked some colors in Photoshop and Color Efex Pro. Nothing to fancy, it really was this beautiful over there :-)
(This place was the only place were the moss was so green, I figure because of the constant spray of the waterfall).

Hope you like it!
