Rauðisandur (Rauðasandur)
Rauðisandur (Red Sands) on the West Fjords... a very remote, beautiful and an unusual place for Iceland. We are more used to black beaches.. at least we who come from the northern part of the country. Such vastness... and I seriously think I was alone in… -
Morning fog in Patreksfjörður
Well, it was more like almost noon, but these are the leftover wisps of the morning fog... :o) -
Rainbow right
While driving home yesterday evening I saw one of the brightest rainbows I've seen. It was also double and the whole curve was visible and bright. I didn't have my camera with me... my mobile camera had to do so the quality is not exactly ace! -

Narfastaðir under stormy clouds
Went on a trip recently with some good friends... and the trip ended up being some kind of a "haunted house" tour :o) This is the abandoned place of Narfastaðir in the eerie light between one hail of snow and the next... -
A snow storm moving in
From inside Narfastaðir... a snow storm is moving in... -
The detour
I sometimes drive by this lake (Hvaleyrarvatn) on my way home from work, it is a short detour and well worth it :o) That afternoon in August was beautiful and I've seldom seen such perfect reflections on the lake! -
Cloudscape
Snapped this awesome cloudscape while on my way to the fireworks show on Jökulsárlón lagoon :o) -
Sunset show
Took a short trip to Borgarfjörður in the beginning of September with some people from work. At sunset we were treated with a great light show... it only lasted for a short while but I managed to catch some of it :o) -
Sunny September Saturday
We had unexpected sun on Saturday... so Kisi and I spent some quality time out on the deck :o) First there was some brushing and grooming, then there was some licking and cleaning, then there was some serious leaning against everything and finally... so… -
Candles and icebergs
Every year the staff of the glacial lagoon of Jökulsárlón say goodbye to summer with a display of fireworks shot from the icebergs on the lagoon. This year I decided (on a very short notice) to go and see it even though it is about 370 km. drive from Re… -
Just like a sinner...
... before the gates of heaven... Last Friday night we were driving to Ólafsvík on Snæfellsnes. The weather was beautiful and the light of the evening sun was magnificent. When we came to the pass of Fróðárheiði we were greeted by this incredible light… -
On the lookout
The indian of lake Kleifarvatn on the lookout on a beautiful, sunny Sunday. I've never seen him so much out of the water as this, usually he is almost surrounded by water :o) -
Enjoying the view
A small canyon leading up from a place called Vigdísarvellir (the plains of Vigdís) on a beautiful sunny Sunday morning. I sat down there and enjoyed the view... and the sun :o) The location on Google Maps -
The other side
Lake Djúpavatn on a beautiful, sunny Sunday morning... the side most people don't visit... a hidden gem :o) -
Where rainbows are made
I was on my way home just before ten o'clock last night when I noticed this magnificent rainbow maker, competing with the evening sun :o) I made this pano from 5 photos snapped on the road leading through the lava field about 5 minutes drive from my ho…
