Skolavordustigur Street.
Per the Icelandic Travel Guide, Skolavordustigur is a scenic pedestrian street in Reykjavik with some of the city’s best restaurants, bars, and shops. Unfortunately, schedules and COVID got in the way of us exploring.

Colorful houses.
Taken while touring downtown Reykjavik on our first day in Iceland. Not exactly sure what it is about it that made me take the photo (and later post it) … just sort of cool. Maybe things don’t need reasons.

Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat.
Sculpted by Magnús Tómasson in 1994, located just outside the Reykjavik Official Tourist Information Center, stands the Monument to the Unknown Bureaucrat. All business downstairs, a huge slab of Icelandic basalt upstairs.

Coffee is a great way to help wake up … drinking it hot or pouring the last few cold drops down your ass while awkwardly petting a cat. Either way, mission accomplished.
Nope, totally didn’t just brew a cup of coffee directly into the drip tray, no sir. 🙄
“Gulf of America”, huh Google? Delete.
Drop in.
Meanwhile, in downtown Reykjavik.
Only able to spend a little time in the city but this feels like some good advice … drop in. Hoping to get back there again soon, spend a little more time exploring the city.

Perlan dome.
Forgot to post this one from the Perlan Museum before moving along further into Reykjavik.
Straight shot from the camera, no edits.

Fiddling around with the Leica D-Lux 8 this morning. Feels like it will be a fun “every day” camera. Juno was nice enough to pose.

No matter what else happens for the rest of the day, I can rest knowing that I fixed the sticky spacebar on my Logi MX Mini (so far anyway). Gets me thinking that of all the tech I have fixed over the years, getting over the fear of trying was always the hardest part.
Hallgrimskirkja photo.
While poking about the less populated places within the Hallgrimskirkja Cathedral, found these beautiful black and white photos hung in the one side hall.

Hallgrimskirkja arches.
Spent some time in the Hallgrimskirkja cathedral in Reykjavik, Iceland. Took a moment to break from the group and explore the less frequented bits … like this lovely little side hall.

Hallgrimskirkja ceiling.
Switching locations to the Hallgrimskirkja cathedral in Reykjavik, Iceland. Never has there been a more viking looking thing. Pretty awe inspiring from the outside, then I looked up from within and saw this.

Perlan Deck.
Shot from the Perlan Museum observation deck of the Perlan Museum observation deck. Some dramatic editing to enhance the metallic drama.

Watching the Daily Show while eating dinner. Tipped back the stemless glass of wine and saw this. Downed the wine and jammed the iPhone camera into the glass. Bit of editing later and here we are … gravitation subspace wine distortion.

Happy Caturday from Juno and Ringo!

Last movie of ‘24, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Felt like the right way to transition into something new. Here’s to fleshing out our own profiles a bit more in ‘25 (winks optional).
Perlan viewer.
Day one on our trip to Iceland, we visited the Perlan Museum in Reykjavik. There was just something about the retro industrial look of the viewer. Not sure which version I prefer. The black and white version gives the metal a glow that I really like while the color version using one of the Leica Looks create such a cool retro vibe that I sort of dig, too.
This one is living rent free in my head this holiday season. Catchy tune enough to like … then listened to the lyrics. Amazing.
Starting the work day on the right foot …
Me: The header image size is looking to be 3200x1800.
Her: That’s HUGE by the way.
Me: That’s what she said.
I don’t think I was actually prepared for What We Do in the Shadows to end.
Perlan compass.
Day one on our trip to Iceland, we visited the Perlan Museum in Reykjavik. This compass stood out in the clear crisp air while out on the observation deck.
I think I’ve most past being disappointed in big tech and appreciative that it’s so bad that I am focusing more on the joy and beauty of analog experiences.
Woke up to back to back coffee photos on the internet. Inspired to snap a quick shot. Coffee time / Adventure Time … same thing really.
