in
North Iceland we spent a couple of days around the fjords of
Skagafjörður and
Húnaflói: there we draw through the mountains in some scary tunnels and saw a lot of farms - both functioning and abandoned - lighthouses, cliffs with nesting seagulls and fulmars and dark sandy beaches with
seals in
Vatnsnes. I fell in love with
fulmars and
skuas as I had never seen them before - Iceland is truly a paradise for seabirds! as for domestic animals - beautiful
icelandic horses and
bushy sheep were a constant feature of the landscape. I remember writing a few posts ago that North Iceland was the most cultivated part of the country: perhaps you will find it hard to believe by looking at my selection of photographs - though the valleys were definitely greener there.
5th selection of my photographs from Iceland:
Nikon FM - Kodak Ektar 100, Fuji Pro 400H
Hasselblad 500 C/M - Fuji Reala 100
when in North Iceland we spent a couple of nights in a very warm and cozy guesthouse:
The Lamb Inn. there we could enjoy some
delicious local food and we even got the chance to visit an
old farmhouse furnished with original antique pieces: we truly had a pleasant stay!
