For the second consecutive day we went whale watching. Akureyri is situated  in a long harbor, and the water was much calmer. But the whales were not as playful. I captured no usable images.

Back in town we went scouting around, and I captured the above image of Akureyri from across the bay. It’s safe to assume I got wet taking this shot, the third time this trip (more coming up). In this case only my shoes got wet.

Image Details: Canon 24-105MM F4 L Lens at 19MM, ISO 125, F/16, for 6 seconds
