Every year I visit Flatey, a small island at Breidafjordur.

Here is a link to a book I made about Flatey.

o0o perfect time to say congratulations to you for all of your views today, 17th November 2012, so very well deserved for many reasons. The beauty of your country portrayed in such a magical way, giving most of us the wonderful opportunity to see and enjoy somewhere we will possibly never see for ourselves. I love the stillness and tranquility you portray. As a photographer, always your pictures are taken with great care and attention to detail also showing creativity and imagination in your still life images. Your wild birds inspire me to paint, thanks for that opportunity, they are a delight to the eye, as are the colours of your sunsets to the rooftops. Thank you also for your welcome comments and flickr friendship ~ Bev ~ o0o

I am fairly new to Flickr, and right away he supported me as a photographer. His photography is of the still beauty in Iceland, a country I have already visited several times....but not in the winter. His winter shots are quite extraordinary. That as well as going beyond himself makes Thorsteinn a unique person.

Although I've only had the pleasure of having th.egilson as a contact for a short time, I knew from the first time I came across his photo stream that I was somewhere special...and I'm sure that he is not only an inspiration to me, but to all who are lucky enough to stumble on and wonder through his beautiful world!

"th.egilson" is a place where you can enjoy the beauty under silence. And this is uniqueness of a composition. Everytime when I see his photos, I know there is a place that I can totally relex myself and enjoy the beauty inside. Ideas are always simple, when less is more, of couse I have great impression from his "little houses" inside the captures, I think there is always perfect silence, calm and peace under his capture, and this is a very unique atmosphere and mood for for the viewers to imagine his stories. "th.egilson", thanks for all your supports to me, that's too great to know you on FLICKR :D.
