Iceland Class

These are some pictures from a geothermal resources class I took. I was in Iceland from July 3 - July 14, 2005. For a more comprehensive set of pictures from my class see my friends site.











A panorama I took from a volcanic crator in Iceland. For some reason I couldn't upload it as one picture so i had to break in into two pieces. The left side of the bottom picture lines up with the right side of the top picture.














A picture of the sun at midnight














A picture from our trip onto the largest glacier in Europe. The tallest peak in Iceland is in the background














A Humpback Whale - taken from the crows nest














Another picture of the Humpback Whale (first one seen since last summer)




















A picture of a water fall in Iceland, there where lots of them.














Three glaciers coming down off the continental ice sheet.














Me standing in the ocean next to an iceberg.














An iceberg filled lake, source of the iceberg in the above picture














Another picture of the icebergs with me (and a seal) in it. You can see the head of the seal to the right of my head.
