Although the days are short in Iceland in February, the sun remains low on the horizon while it s up, writes Your Shot member Ed Graham. This allows six to eight hours of shooting in a beautiful golden light if the weather cooperates. Here, the winter sun falls on Iceland s Go afoss, or Waterfall of the Gods, one of the largest in the country. To achieve this shot, Graham made a hazardous climb. The bare surface of the rock was slick from refrozen mist from the falls, he writes. I got as close to the edge as I dared.
