22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Drone/Aerial
Icelandic River - Aerial View

This shot depicts a yellow river, which, after crossing a strip of black volcanic sand, flows into the ocean, creating shades of colour in the water. Iceland is one of the few places in the world where, thanks to volcanic sediments and sulphur, the water can take on such impressive colours.
