Photoreal golden-hour landscape: a small white church with a red roof and steeple on a grassy headland in the left third, a curve of glossy black sand, white surf rolling in from the right, four dark basalt rocks and sea stacks offshore, a low sun at the far left, and orange, pink, and purple clouds. Step 2 of the Icelandic Black Sand Beach Church workflow.
A small white wooden church with a red gabled roof and a pointed red steeple stands on a rounded grassy green headland above an Icelandic black sand beach at golden hour, with dark basalt sea stacks rising from the ocean on the right. The church sits in the left third of the frame, near the top of the headland, its white walls and small windows lit warm gold by the low sun. The headland's grassy slope drops down to the beach, and a wide curve of fine black volcanic sand sweeps from the lower left corner across the foreground, wet and glossy near the water. White foamy surf rolls in from the right in several long lines and washes up the black sand. In the sea on the right half stand four dark basalt rocks: a low rounded rock near the end of the headland, a tall jagged sea stack in the center right, and two smaller pointed spires further right. The low sun sits near the horizon at the far left behind the headland, glowing yellow-orange, and the sky is filled with scattered clouds lit orange, pink, and purple against soft blue.
