Dettifoss – Iceland by Martin Ystenes – http://hei.cc Dettifoss is the European waterfall with the largest energy content (Height x flow). The river drains the north side of the Vatnajökull glacier, hence the flow is particularly strong in the summer, when tourists are around. Because the river passes an area formed by large ash volcanoes, the water appears gray or black, and the erosion caused by transported material is so strong that no vegetation is able to get a foothold.
Less than one km above, there is another waterfall, Selfoss, which is almost as large. The fall is wider and formed as a horseshoe, but the characteristics are very much the same: Dramatic rock formations, gray water, no vegetation, and a beautiful waterfall.

The beautiful Djúpalónssandur beach at Snæfellsnes peninsula West Iceland with its unique shapes of the frozen lava dominating the landscape around.
There is a peculiar rock with a hole in it called Gatklettur. Through the hole one can see Snæfellsjökull glacier in the distance

Some say that Iceland has more waterfalls then people and sometimes I think that is correct. When traveling around the country you may come upon a beautiful waterfall the you even didn´t know existed and a few meters down the same river another one and so on
I love waterfalls and I´m always thrilled to see a new one I have not seen before like this one I came upon last summer when traveling the south highlands
