Al secondo giorno dell mio terzo viaggio in Islanda, facciamo tappa al Kirkjufell. Ore 21: nel piazzale lungo la strada vi sono 3 autobus da 50 posti pieni di fotoamatori, più diverse auto. Ci incamminiamo verso il lato della cascata ma appena arrivati realizziamo che è fisicamente impossibile piazzarsi con la fotocamera, ormai ogni centimetro di terreno antistante il torrente è occupato. Proseguiamo dunque e decidiamo di scattare dalla parte del laghetto, che a mio parere offre uno scorcio altrettanto godibile di quello della cascata. La riflessione che vorrei fare, da fotoamatore amante della scoperta e dell'esplorazione, è che in Islanda ormai gli scorci classici, tra cui il Kirkjufell, il Vestrahorn, Jokulsarlon, Skogafoss, ecc ecc sono presi d'assalto da centinaia di fotoamatori. Si finisce tutti per fare le stesse foto, dunque. Eppure l'Islanda offre magnifici scorci meno battuti, basta scostarsi un minimo dai percorsi più turistici per scoprire dei mondi. Dov'è finita la creatività del fotoamatore?

for those who have objection: "Eh but eventually the Kirkjufell you were there" at the end I shot from another angle, with no one before, except my traveling companion:

heavy traffic near the kirkjufell is visible in timelapse I recorded:

Great reflection and image! that's what I think almost always glancing shots from Iceland. sure, I wouldn't mind seeing these places, but they're getting a little "triti", thus losing the allure of exploration and the "exotic".

Hi David, however I confirm that in Iceland there is indeed a world to be discovered around every curve, then travel equally recommended even now are hordes of tourist locations amateurs!

it is absolutely true as you tell, sometimes you do not even find the place to park
the amount of tourists pulman and car, it has discouraged me, the north of Norway not so

By now you find coaches of amateurs with photo backpacks bigger than them in every corner of the world, the charm of exploration has been lost for at least 10 years now. Today if you want to be transgressive you have to take pictures of the cat in the house :-D
