Fjallabak Size:Statement (60"x30") joined to the Maroon BellsFjallabak Nature Reserve sits in Iceland's central highlands, accessible only by F roads that the country opens for a few months each summer and closes again under the snow. The lakes here sit in old volcanic depressions; the turquoise comes from glacial silt fine enough to scatter light. Arthur shot from the air. The moss is rhyolite stained, the snow patches in the back hold most of the year.
