Daily Nature Fix: Pastel Sunset at the Sea Stacks. (Original Photos)

Hello gang. You made it through Monday... hope it's the start to a great week for everyone.

Now then, for tonight's Daily Nature Fix, I'll be sharing a few photos of a sunset we had on our last trip to Iceland, earlier last month. We were in the south near the town of Vik and on their famous black-sand beach called Reynisfjara. The nearby mountain is made up of volcanic basalt rock and has created a few sea stacks from centuries of erosion. Those sea stacks are known as Reynisdrangar.

Our whole time here was pretty mystical feeling. In winter, there is only around 4 hours of real sunlight... but sunset and sunrise last for like 2 hours each. Everything as cast in a crazy blueish/pinkish glow.

Oh, back to those sea stacks quick. The local folklore about them is that several trolls were hauling a ship onto shore when the sun rose above the horizon and turned them into stone. The stacks are rocky remains of the unfortunate trolls. Speaking of the sun rising above the horizon, here's a another photo of the colorful clouds from a bit earlier than the last two photos.
