Landmannalaugar - Mountains and valleys

This picture is taken in Landmannalaugar in Iceland. This is one of the few times that I've used my Canon 70-200mm f/2.8L IS as a landscape lens. You really get a different perspective on the landscape shooting with such a lens.
This is from a phototrip I took with María.

The landscape truly is stunning in Landmannalaugar. I highly recommend it as a place to visit :-)

Really nice shot- I love the way the perspective is squashed, and you get an almost layered image.

Great use of the 200mm!
