Fyrir hvað sem ástæða

The title is Icelandic for "For whatever reason". I'm now fluent in Icelandic! Isn't that exciting?

Just kidding. I ran the phrase through Google translate. Icelandic is basically Old Norse. It's what the vikings spoke. It's hard, ok?

For whatever reason, these are among my favorites of the photos I took in Iceland.



I've gotten a good response to this one. I like how I composed it. It's from inside a church that I should know the name of.

I love Scandinavian style decorating. Simple, pops of color, no bad motel art...

Classic Icelandic colors

Bus ride from Mjodd to whatever the name of the village is Vidar lives in. Unbelievable, lunar scenery but somehow more lush in its whiteness. There were streams here and there, and dogs happily bounding in front of their owners. It was the closest thing for heaven (for me) that I'd ever seen.

What's not to like about this?
