At the Blue Lagoon, the shifting light conditions after sunset present amazing photographic possibilities. Photographs of ethereal effects created by the interaction of golden hour light with the steam rising from the water's surface dream of capture. The higher viewing platforms and the calmer lagoon areas where the steam produces striking patterns against the fading sky define the ideal sites for sunset photography. Professional photographers advise employing protective gear and waterproof cameras to record original viewpoints from water level. Natural light, steam, and the milky-blue water of the lagoon combine to produce settings for very remarkable images capturing the spirit of this special place.
