Iceland - Full Moon over Dyrhólaey - Door Island during Dusk - Twilight - Blue Hour
Dyrhólaey (Door Island) is a 120 m high rock, created during a submarine volcanic eruption approximately 80 thousand years ago. The eruption, which formed Dyrhólaey and the pillars around it (originally parts of it), presumably took place in the same way as other submarine and subglacial eruptions. In the beginning, a major tephra eruption took place and later, when the crater reached the surface of the sea, the lava started to flow and thus ensured its existence. Dyrhólaey is a promontory reaching out into the ocean on the south coast of Iceland. It is the southernmost part of the country.
I knew that there will be Full Moon during my trip to Iceland, however I was not sure how I'll use it in my work. Thanks to my beloved TPE app on my iphone, I realized that Dyrhólaey might be perfect place to capture it... and the Moon could not have been placed any better, especially as this is the only place you can capture this rock from (just few steps to left or right).
