Intense.
Búðir, Snæfellsness, a couple of days back 40 minutes before sunrise, which on this day was at 10:41 am.
The shocking Red is not a result of itchy fingers fondling the Photoshop saturation slider. This is Nature gone wild.

I would request you to please share the focal lengths used, in addition to the lens detail.
Asheesh, the specific focal length is of limited interest as I (and most photographers) compose first and foremost for the scene without regard to what the focal length might turn out (for a zoom lens). Even in the case of a prime lens, one often crops the image to comport with the desired composition. If you need information on the focal length for any specific image you can email me.
You should add a “like” button here. There are some pictures which are good and which do not need comment.
Mervyn-bab, as someone who disdains social media and the craving for “Likes” so many grown-ups have these days, I refrain from offering that option. The satisfaction of knowing that you and some others come to my page and enjoy the photos is good enough for me.
Truly breathtaking images. Is this deep red sky typical? Any idea of its cause?
Thanks, Bob. The sunrises and sunsets in these Arctic regions can be especially intense due to a confluence of several atmospheric factors such as the air being cold and dry, the sun lingering much longer near and off the horizon, and formation of cloud systems that enhance the spectacle.
Lovely!
