Description
This picture made 100% in Bryce 5 and GeoControl is a personal illustration of the actual beginning of Viking settlements in Iceland that took place in the ninth century, a couple of decades after the very first inhabitants who were Irish hermits who landed in Iceland around the year 800 A.D.The peculiar scenery and light illustrate my first encounter with this country, as I flew to Iceland from Paris at night, and I'll always remember the unnerving and strange darkness over the lava fields and mossy craters surrounding Keflavik international airport ! Thank you very much for your nice comments and support . Have a nice week-end and don't hesitate to zoom in for a full-size vision of my works !

superb terrain and historical render
Fantastic view and render,my friend,love your Bryce work*********
Fantastic Bryce render,J-L. Magnificent terrain and sense of scale. Great ships,too.
Les pillards font voile vers de plus riches contrées! Superbe paysage et belle atmosphère, la flotte de drakkars rend bien compte de l'échelle, excellente image, Jean-Luc!
Beautiful work and great POV
Le paysage enneigé, ainsi que le ciel sont superbes, avec un bel effet de brume et de profondeur, et la flotte viking est bien à l'échelle ! Magnifique image dans Bryce, Jean-Luc !
Amazing work .
Great work.
Outstanding work. God bless.
Après quoi, ils vont envahir l'Angleterre (enfin, ce qu'elle était à l'époque), faire le siège de Paris, aller jusqu'en Andalousie et, peut-être, en Amérique ! Bon sang de guerriers ! auxquels ta belle création rend un hommage mérité.
Intéressante image !
A magnificent image and superb reenactment! Most excellent Bryce artistic creativity! Bravo and many fine kudos!
Very well done.

Marvelous image !!!
oh ! C'est magnifique ! L'Islande t'inspire toujours autant et c'est tant mieux pour nous car tu nous régales avec de superbes créations Bryce !
Superbe paysage et tes composition sont vraiment époustouflante Jean-Luc !!!
Great creation and interesting information Jean-Luc. Iceland is on my 'must see list'. I came through there in 1971-72 and what I remember (it was in winter) was the strong winds as we approached Keflavik. Seconds before we landed we were still over the large swells. As a kid I read a book about Hekla, one of the many volcanoes on Iceland and I am anxious to see the land..
This is a very good!
Fantastic render and landscape! Can imagine how they arrived there 🤗
Great render!
Exellent work.
