I like this best in full-screen view (click the pic, then click the frame that appears at top right). Your opinion may vary. There's another view of the instrument in the PiP at top left.

Reykjavik 1944

Uploaded for the Vintage Photos Theme Park weekly theme of Cities. My uncle bought this postcard in 1944. Since Canadian troops had left Iceland in 1941 I don't know why he was there. I suppose if I'd asked he would have had to kill me.The gothic tower in back is part of the Cathedral of Christ the King. The park was then the home of the Cabinet Office, which is now the Prime Minister's Office. The neighbourhood is much changed today. The street on the left with the statue on one side and the octagonal building on the other seems to have been re-aligned, the statue is now pretty much where the octagonal building was, and the octagonal building is across the street. As you can see by exploring this view: www.google.ca/maps/@64.1474745,-21.9358318,3a,90y,244.04h,79.5t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sjCcbiB9CSkeaNTVCtb_Caw!2e0!7i13312!8i6656

Sunday morning on a long weekend. This got a bit dark in uploading. It appears a bit brighter in the larger views.

London, Ontario. I like the really big view you get by clicking the photo and then clicking the frame at top right of that view. But that's just me.

As I was about to say...

...before I was so rudely interrupted, happy Fence Friday! Even though it's Monday! Seriously, the two best photos I have to post at the moment are of fences, so here's the one I tried to upload Friday. I've put this in my Tributes album because I think it was inspired by Robert Adams's "Tract House, Westminster, Colorado": www.damianzimmermann.de/blog/wp-content/uploads/adams3.jpg
