Ice Beach Iceland during the Winter.   One exiting location to shoot, risk/reward for certain.   Have been totally wet getting knocked down by a large chunk of ice receding with the wave, and not the only time.  On that occasion my camera drowned, saved on others !!!

FE 16-35 F4.0 ZA OSS @ 16mm

Excellent photo from this really cool place.  I would prefer just a bit of a crop off of the left side.

The moving water around the ice looks fantastic. Stunning and beautiful.

I never tire of seeing these Iceland images.
This one is a beauty!!!! …..Love it!
The one problem with the left side crop suggestion is that you would lose some of those really cool surf lines.

I love everything about this one - just as it is! Wonderful image and the silver and blue colour palette is one of my favourites.

Great picture, great location especially in winter time. I would also crop the left ice cube.

Absolutely stunning Alfred. You did well seeing this in advance. Hope your camera is salvageable or you have insurance.
