Six-Years Ago (01-August-2013) — Iceland

Gone to See Iceland 2013 Photography Safari with Mike Hagen. Day 3: Vestmannaeyjar (Westman Islands).

Icelandic Horses are a unique breed of horses brought to Iceland by the Vikings. They have grown to be a hearty breed suited to the environment. I found them to be very friendly, and photogenic.
