Kirkjufellsfoss is a well-known waterfall on the Snæfellsnes Peninsula. Most pictures show the waterfall with the iconic mountain in the background, but here's the front. Have you been? #WaterfallWednesday #Iceland #IcelandTrip #IcelandAdventure #Wanderlust #Waterfalls #IcelandWaterfall

Oh joy, I’m now getting AI bot slop comments on photos on Instagram 😭😭

Anyway, here’s a very old photo (Sept 2014) of my first visit to Kirkjufellsfoss. Better angles in those days before we all destroyed the vegetation and it was fenced off 😬

#Iceland
A golden pointy mountain with some smooth waterfalls in the foreground. Autumnal and dusky. Terrible repetitive AI (presumably) generated comments on Instagram with ridiculous use of the word “confident” describing a photo.

I'm calling this a win. Kirkjufellfoss at sunset in Iceland's Snæfellsness Peninsula. #Iceland #photosafari #landscapephototography
(Yes, it's one of the most photographed places in Iceland, but this one is *mine*) 🥰

Taken these very large waterfalls in Iceland called Kirkjufellsfoss.

I took this shot last month on my way to Greenland.

Can you see the man looking over the top from the walkway?

Kirkjufellsfoss is on the northern side of the Snæfellsnes Peninsula in West Iceland. It's also a part time actor, Kirkjufell ("Church Mountain") in the background appeared as "Arrowhead Mountain" in the TV series Game of Thrones. #iceland #geography #nature #photo

"Waterflight"

Winds at 70mph lifted #Kirkjufellsfoss into the sky. I call this moment waterflight — a neologism for the rare force when wind overpowers gravity, and a waterfall dangerously takes to the sky. Story in alt. #WaterfallWednesday #EastCoastKin #Photography #LandscapePhotography #Fujifilm
Kirkjufellsfoss, the waterfall at the foot of Kirkjufell Mountain in Iceland, is torn upward by 60–70mph winds. Instead of falling, white sheets of water arc skyward, crossing the path before dissolving into a heavy gray sky. The green slopes of Kirkjufell rise sharply behind, their ridges softened by mist. The scene looks otherworldly, as if gravity itself had failed. That day, the wind was so violent that it was nearly impossible to walk upright. Visitors leaned forward into the gusts, moving two steps forward, one step back, several falling down. At the crossing where airborne water swept the path, a sudden blast knocked a woman to the ground and left her unconscious. My wife, a nurse, was at her side, caring for her until she woke, dazed and bloodied. We later learned she had a concussion, a broken nose, and stitches — injuries that could have been far worse. In a strange coincidence, we saw her again days later at the airport gate next to ours, grateful and patched up. It was definitely dangerous and tourists were being tourists.

Iceland aglow

Icelandic waterfalls, Kirkjufellsfoss, surround Kirkjufell mountain, a 1,500ft nunatak summit touched by Ice Age ice.

I felt motivated this morning to revisit my photo catalog from Iceland, including re-touching some edits that were lost to an older computer years ago. This is my new spin on an old photo of Kirkjufellsfoss from 2019.

#Iceland #Photography #LandscapePhotography
A photo of the iconic Kirkjufellsfoss Waterfall in Iceland. The waterfall is shown in a long exposure, with water streaming over the ledge and forming a triple waterfall into the stream below. The prominent peak of Mt. Kirkjufell is seen in center frame, blanketed by an expanse of green to yellow grass under a blue sky.

I really need to get back to Snæfellsnes, so many beautiful areas to explore. Here’s a little gouache #pleinair painting from a while back of Kirkjufellsfoss.

A different interpretation of #smooth is capturing the silky smooth flow of water, especially of waterfalls like Kirkjufellsfoss in Iceland.

'Monochrom' #FotoVorschlag Der Berg Kirkjufell in Island, der seinen Namen trägt, weil er an eine Kirche erinnert. Und der Wasserfall heißt dann folgernd Kirkjufellsfoss. Noch spannender in der korrekten Aussprache dieser Worte übrigens.
Schwarzweiß-Aufnahme einer dramatischen isländischen Landschaft mit dem markanten, pyramidenförmigen Berg Kirkjufell im Hintergrund. Der Berg zeigt charakteristische horizontale Gesteinsschichten und erhebt sich majestätisch über die karge, felsige Landschaft. Im Vordergrund fließt ein kleiner Wasserfall über dunkle Lavafelsen in einen Bach.

The obligatory shot of Kirkjufellsfoss plus the pointy Kirkjufell.

#Iceland
A big pointy green mountain with some smooth waterfall strands in the foreground. The sun is just setting behind a hill and three people are silhouetted walking away. Patchy grey clouds fill the sky.

Kirkjufell mountain with Kirkjufellsfoss waterfall in Iceland 🇮🇸 It is often called "Church Mountain" due to its shape on Snæfellsnes Peninsula, near Grundarfjörður.
