Another spectacular waterfall in northern Iceland is Godafoss. It can be seen from two sides, but from one of the sides the wind and the mist make it challenging to shoot. For a long exposure, such as 15 or 30 seconds, too much mist builds up on the lens for a clear shot. I took this photo from the side that was more protected, and my settings were 15 seconds, f/20, 640 IS, and I used the new Canon 16-35mm wide angle. I also used a 10 f/stop neutral density filter. I included the foreground rocks to add depth to the image. Because of the high wind, the clouds moved during the exposure. That's why they appear a bit blurred. What I should really do is replace the sky with sharp clouds.
