When you are driving the roads in Iceland, you can't avoid the feeling that you are on a long scenic journey. In your travels you often come across a place in the landscape that is not a natual wonder or popular tourist attraction, yet it just urges you to stop and take in the beauty before you. One such place is the Fossálar Waterfall just off Route 1 in the south.

Captured this traveller, Indra Rudava, sitting quietly enjoying a magnificent rainbow cast over the majestic Selfoss Waterfalls in Northern Iceland. The river, Jökulsá á Fjöllum, that cascades over Selfoss originates as melt water from the glacier Vatnajökull and flows north into Öxarfjörður, a bay of the Arctic Sea.
