Mexican sunset... nice :)

If the sun was in the sky at Thingvellir, and it was gone at Gullfoss, where did we enjoy the sunset? Why, there's only one item left on the Golden Circle Tour: Geysir of course! The ground was covered in a thick layer of ice, the hot water was producing steam and clouds like crazy, and reflecting and shining through all this was the wonderful orange sunset in some of the purest skies in the world. This was without a doubt one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen, and I'm not sure I managed to convey just how amazing it was in these pictures. But without any further comment: enjoy nonetheless!

Again, revisiting a location from last fall. Perhaps not as spectacular as Gullfoss, as there wasn't really time to descend down to the actual lake (cursed be thee, guided tours), but still not bad. And yeah, more sunsets!

A few touristy images of the city itself, perhaps?

Last week we had the shortest day of the year, like everywhere else in the Northern Hemisphere. With a sunrise at 11:22 and a sunset at 15:30, that's just over four hours of daylight on the 22nd of December, 2009. I thought it might be interesting to take my camera to work and take pictures throughout the day to show you what that looks like in reality...

...variations on the theme...

Right now I'm about 6 weeks behind on the blog --not too bad, it used to be four months-- but yesterday I was off on a walk and "discovered" that our local pond, Tjörnin, has frozen over. Probably for some time already. Mmyeah, I got sidetracked and never made it to wherever I was going. So I thought I'd jump the queue and show these asap, so at least you get an idea of what it looks like right here, right now. These pics were taken between 15:00 and 15:30...

Last one, to wrap it up! That stone thing is some indian symbol that's also used as a logo for the upcoming Winter Olympics, so you'll be seeing a lot of that (if you care for that stuff).
