After I spent two hours getting soaked while exploring one of Iceland many canyons, the rain eventually stopped and some magical light finally started filtering through the clouds. I took hundreds of frames trying to capture the many fulmars inhabiting the ravine, with a particularly exciting moment when I thought I had spotted a sea eagle flying overhead. Unfortunately, on closer inspection, it was actually a great skua, a notoriously aggressive seabird found inhabiting Iceland coastal regions.
