It saves going to heaven.

One of the workers of Neðstikaupstaður museum in Ísafjörður, Westfjords of Iceland, grabs a quick snack.

The best-preserved cluster of 18th century houses in Iceland is to be found in the Neðstikaupstaður in Isafjordur. These are the buildings of Danish monopoly merchants, warehouses as well as residential houses. The maritime division of the West Fjords Folk Museum is located in one of them, the so-called Turnhús.

While driving through Ísafjarðardjúp, threading every single fjord as the night fell and fog came crawling in, we were greeted by a small whale playing in the waters.

An old house at Ytri-Vík in Eyjafjörður N-Iceland, now renovated at least on the inside as a summer cottage, hence the oddly new looking glass in the windows.
From a short phototour in Eyjafjörður with my friend Daníel.

.....The Wind begun to rock the Grass
With threatening Tunes and low --
He threw a Menace at the Earth --
A Menace at the Sky.......
