Svartifoss

Svartifoss is a stunning waterfall located in the Skaftafell National Park in the Eastern Region of Iceland. The waterfall is known for its unique basalt columns that surround it, making it a popular photography location for both amateur and professional photographers. The columns were formed by lava that cooled slowly and evenly, creating hexagonal shapes that are a sight to behold. The contrast between the black basalt columns and the white water cascading down the falls creates a striking visual effect that is truly breathtaking. The surrounding landscape is also a photographer's dream, with glaciers, mountains, and lush greenery providing a stunning backdrop for any shot.

I took this photo in Iceland during a recent trip along this amazing country. This cascade is Svartifoss, one of the most famous cascades in Iceland, located in the Skaftafell National Park. It is a singular waterfall due to the basaltic formations that surround the cascade.

In this case I placed my tripod in the center of the water stream to capture the water flow and used a long exposure to obtain that nice effect on the water.

A must see place if you travel to Iceland

This long exposure shot (1.3 seconds) is processed with the new pipeline suggested with the arrival of Darktable 3.0. So, in the first stage were applied plugins like White Balance, Denoise modules, Lens correction, Tone Equalizer, Contrast Equalizer, Color Balance and RGBFilmic with "Linear Rec2020 RGB" profile. In a second stage were applied tone curve and Velvia specific color adjustments with "Abobe RGB Profile".

In conclusion, interesting new pipeline in Darktable 3.0

A Haida Neutral filter of 6 steps was used.
