Great photos. During my tour in Iceland ( Keflavik Naval Station in 1966 and H-2 on the Langanes Peninsula in 66- 67) I took few photos. One of my biggest regrets. Finding your site and referring others to it was great! A lot of memories in your photos. Thank You!

These are just breathtaking pictures. I just HAVE to go to Iceland one of these days. I've been to Ireland but Iceland might be greater in beauty than any country I've seen yet.

Sheila Rimer		17-Nov-2007 19:51
My friend and I are visiting Iceland, this coming Spring, and I can't thank you enough for posting these brilliant pictures. We were eagerly anticipating the trip before the gallery, now - May simply cannot come soon enough. SR

Guest		14-Nov-2007 01:42
Thank you for the wonderful pictures. My special education students are studying and creating islands around the world and we chose Iceland as one. It is a beautiful country and my students are interested in the many different types of landforms you have. Sandi

shelia burtron		30-Sep-2007 19:00
First of all, your pictures are beautiful. I lived in Iceland for 3 years, my husband was stationed at keflavik. It is so gorgeous, the people so friendly, my kids loved it so much they flew back for a second visit. We have never enjoyed a place so much in our life. I worked with all Icelanders on the base and what a blessing it was. No one can really understand the true beauty, the natural wonders and the joy of being in this country until they can visit. Thank you for all your pics.

Carole		10-Sep-2007 12:30
I am from the USA, and I love Iceland. The pictures were outstanding. I even saved one for my background on my computer. I hope to visit your wonderful country one day.

Lorna		22-Aug-2007 22:28

James Bodine		10-Apr-2007 21:59
I was stationed in Keflavick as an airman from Sept '55 to 'Aug '56. I see nothing in your pictures that I can remember. Boy how time changes everything. However I do have over 400' of 8mm movies to remember what I did see.

Hulda, UK		27-Jan-2007 22:03

Beautiful pictures. It didn't look quite that way in 1961 when I was stationed at H-2, and H-3. I would love to go back and visit now that I have seen these pictures. I just remember it as the " Rock ". Water, mountains, cliffs etc. You have done a wonderful job with this site. Thanks...........Bob Wofford

I was stationed at Rockville (H-1) April thru Aug. 1955, then transferred to Hofn (H-3), Sept. thru Feb. 1956. In 1995 my wife and I and her uncle and aunt flew space A to Keflavik and spent four days touring the area. Iceland changed a lot in 40 years. Your pictures are beautiful. We enjoyed them very much. Orvin W. Bergman MSGT USAF (Ret.)

Terri McLean		03-Sep-2005 02:51
While stationed in Keflavik in 1981 I got a rare chance to experience life outside the base through a friend and felllow weather observer who had relatives living in Reykjavik. Your pictures have brought back many great memories of such a beautiful place.

Tom Wolf		26-Aug-2005 18:47

What time of year did you visit Iceland? The pictures are beautiful. My husband was stationed there in the early 70's. We would love to make a trip back so I can see Iceland.

Larissa		16-Nov-2004 04:59
Very beautiful pictures, it was a pleasure to visit your gallery.

Guest		20-Oct-2004 09:19
This is a wonderful dream!

Eric Levake		30-Sep-2004 04:33
I really enjoyed seeing the pictures of the various landscapes of Iceland. It certainly shows the diversity of the island and the beauty from its boiling pots of mud, to its great mountains, clear lakes and beautiful cities. I was especially glad to see the photos of the small pockets of forest in Iceland and their efforts to reforest much of the country. Great work. Makes me want to go right now.

Guest		25-Aug-2004 20:50
I don't know Iceland from a hole in the ground, but your pictures are beautiful!!

chevytruck		09-Nov-2003 14:53
Thanks for the fantastic photos of Iceland! I lived there in 1964 and 1965. Although your pictures show a much more "modern" Iceland than I remember, much of the landscape brought back many fond memories.

Iain		06-Sep-2003 16:24
God's (or gods') Country ~ everyone I know wants to go to Florida, Cuba, Hawaii... Give me Iceland & the north anytime! Beautiful gallery! Best wishes from toronto, & best of luck to you & all. And thank you!

Dean		29-Aug-2003 07:58
I met my wife in Iceland while stationed there in 1995. It is hard to believe that 8 years have passed. Since then, we have both seperated from the Navy and finished our degrees in Software Engineering. Seeing these pictures really took us back. We are planning to return to Iceland in about two years and celebrate our tenth anniversary there. Had it not been for a fatefull trip to a place neither of us had ever heard of, we might have never met. Thank you for the pictures and the reminder of good times from eight years ago. Dean and Analiza Bortell

Kata		26-Aug-2003 19:49

Danjango		21-Aug-2003 22:11
Great site. Great Photos. Always wanted to visit, and your images just make it more tempting. Thanks.

Rich Merris		28-Jun-2003 23:08
Thank you for the pleasure of the photos of Iceland. I was assigned to the Keflavik NAS in 1981 & 1982, and I have to admit it was one of the best assignments in my 20 year career in the Air Force. I hope to be able to take my wife up there in the future to show her one of the most interesting, beautiful and clean countries in the world. Wish you would have been able to have photos of the Naval Air Station for memories sake! LOL Thank You Again Rich

Franziska Lang		03-Apr-2003 19:45
My friend and I are planning a photography trip to Iceland next month ... if our photos turn out only have as good, I'll be more than happy. You have some spectacular photos here :) Any tips? Thanks, Franziska.

Marika from Finland		26-Mar-2003 12:57
I went to Iceland for the first time last summer. The country is definitely worth many more visits. Your photos give extra motivation for saving for a new trip!

click		29-Jan-2003 15:37
Want to see Iceland myself. This album is one of the best collections of pictures of Iceland I've seen!

Kevin		15-Jan-2003 00:35
Thank you for the GREAT photographs. I just won a trip to Iceland from a local radio station....seeing your photographs is really getting me excited about taking the trip. Thanks again! Kevin

Ann in Maryland		03-Jan-2003 18:41
What wonderful photos. I've always wanted to go to Iceland. Your photos convinced me that I need to go. Great photography!

victor		03-Jan-2003 02:32
There is somebody to whom i am most fond, and she is from iceland. Somewhere between watching her wonderful soft blue eyes, her voice pronouncing icelandic, the pictures of a bewitching land, and my deep desire of loosing myself to a nordic place, i just feel I would love to be in iceland, to spend some time there... I'm still figuring out how (job, house, travel) but once I do, I'll get myself a collection of pictures of that handsome country of Iceland. And I'll wish they'd be as beautiful as yours, boy!

Joe Smith		30-Dec-2002 06:14
Ken: You have a beautiful gallery of Icelandic scenes. I was stationed at H1 (Rockville) in 64-65 and had a chance to see some of the countryside. One thing that I was looking for in your pictures was a Rainbow. The most beautiful Rainbows I have ever seen were in Iceland. Each color stood out clearly. That is because the atmosphere in Iceland is so clean and clear. There is virtually no pollution in Iceland. I also saw the most beautiful Northern Lights while there. Really enjoyed your pictures. Thanks!

Gulli		19-Dec-2002 00:37
You must have lived here in Iceland :) fine pictures !! The lighthouse you call baearfell is Reykjanes lighthouse :) Chrismas greetings ! Gulli in Keflavik

Catherine		16-Dec-2002 03:39
I'm planning a trip to Iceland for next year. Your gallery has me x1 000 000 more times excited. Thank you for sharing your pictures.

Robert Wofford		10-Dec-2002 21:02
I was in Iceland in 1961. I did not get to see pictures or the beauty of the country. I was stationed on H-2, Langanes, and then H-3, Hofn. Your pictures are truly beautiful and I would like to go to some of these places sometime. I have just retired and have more time to enjoy sites like yours. Thanks for sharing the pictures.......Robert{Bob} Wofford

James Grimbleby		19-Nov-2002 14:04
Hi Ken I visited Iceland for a few days last year and was immediately captivated by the amazing landscapes and geothermal activity. Your photographs capture the extraordinary atmosphere of Iceland and are some of the best (both technically and in composition) that I have seen on the web. I am now even more determined to visit Iceland again and to see more of this remarkable country. Thank you. James Grimbleby

lim chai heng		08-Nov-2002 08:44
hi, ken, i like the way you take your photos. nice pictures. i would like to know you.

Alda		25-Oct-2002 08:43
Am an Icelander abroad and was looking for pictures of the homecountry to show my foreign friends. Thanks for the help :)

Josephine		02-Sep-2002 19:08
This is a wonderful site with such a variety of views of Iceland. I am a 2nd generation Icelander and closely connected with the Canadian Icelandic community but have never visited the "old country". I have seen such views in the paintings of Luisa Matthiasdottor, shown from time to time here in New York. Thanks again!!!

Ken Walsh		30-Aug-2002 20:33
To All, Thank you for all the great comments about the gallery! Hopefully future photos will continue to get even better. v/r Ken W.

Ana		23-Aug-2002 15:26
Very beatiful photographs. Congratulations! Some landscapes are amazing. I encourage the photographer to comoe to Scotland, to the Highlands, where he can take photographs, at least, so beatiful as these ones.

Ivar		24-Jul-2002 17:28
I loved your pictures. I was stationed up there in the early 80's. Thanks for the memories.

Guest		16-Jul-2002 02:24

I love your pictures - the landscapes are at once bleak AND beautiful...

pkit		10-May-2002 05:42
Hi Ken, I like your pictures much. Iceland is a good place to visit, isn't it? Among all the picutres, I like "Baejarfell Light 2" most. I tried to take some picture of the sky before but I find that the effect is not so good. The sky were very blue at that day but I failed to capture that blue color. Can u tell me how to take a picture that like what u did in "Baejarfell Light 2"? Thanks. ps. I use SLR camera.

militaryartist		29-Apr-2002 06:39
I really enjoyed touring Iceland through your magnificent selection of photographs. I was especially taken by the power of such pictures as "Big Sky" and the bonfire scenes. You are fortunate to have such a keen eye for photographic subjects and a demonstrated technical ability to get the most striking pictures of them. Thank you for the trip.

Leif Tobias		10-Feb-2002 17:30
I'm never been to Iceland. But I'm shure to visit this country sometime. Especially after your beautiful picture. Great work.

Rosinkar Olafsson		26-Jan-2002 19:31
Good work Ken And good pictures

Arnor Arnason		16-Sep-2001 20:45
Great pictures Ken, after 30 years of travelling around Iceland you still manage to show me som new perspectives of my country - hope you had a good time up here. If you like to see some pictures from 4x4 winter-travelling in Iceland, Please look at www.pbase.com/arnora - enjoy and please come back.

bob g		09-Sep-2001 00:36

julivalley		08-Sep-2001 13:05
I enjoyed your Iceland pictures. I was once in Iceland briefly years ago. I was flying then Air Icelandic to Europe. We stopped to refuel or something on our way to Luxembourg City. I'm sorry now I didn't have time to look around. Nice work.
