Djupivogur at around 6pm.  This is mid to late afternoon since sunset is nine or ten.  Not significantly changed in post-production.  Just an extremely dark sky.

Clearly a petrified dinosaur or a marine reptile in the sand. Perhaps a short-necked pliosaur such as Kronosaurus.

By now I have reached Hofn and proceeded to a wetlands area in a peninsula just south of it.  This is why there are two pins on the map at Hofn.  This one and the next five images are from that area.
