We were camping a few hours north of Reykjavik, in Stykkisholmur, the ferry terminal to the Northwestern Fjords. I got up early on a misty, foggy morning to do a little exploration in the local area. The clouds were grey and heavy and there was not much hope for any light. But as I was exploring Helgafell (this hill is mentioned in the Sagas as an entrance to Valhalla) the sun broke through in the far distance and lit up these hills on the Snaefellsnes Peninsula for a few minutes.
