Snow Mountain Sunset

Mid-November, and by 16:30 the sun has set. The fading light splashes strong colour across the sky and reduces the shadows to shades of dark blue.

Snæfell - the eponymous 'snow mountain' - volcano at the head of Lagarfljót, a huge elongated lake that drains into the sea in eastern #Iceland.

A photo of a mountain under a sky filled with streaked cloud. The sunset has tinted this in strong shades of ochre, orange and yellow. A beard of cloud is streaming from the top of the volcano, and close inspection reveals a snow cap and patches of ice down the flanks. The foreground is a large body of water, picking up a small reflection of the colours above, and the humped outlines of hills on either shore. These are in darkening shades of blue.
