Desolate

Driving from Stuðlagil Canyon to northern Iceland, close to Hverfjall over the ring road will give some dramatic landscapes. For this photo I had to use lightroom and photoshop in order to clean up the debris and dust from the camera sensor. When I came back home and cleaned the sensor, I found it was speckled with black dust, likely some volcanic ashes :)

Point Wilson Lighthouse is in Fort Worden State Park, near Port Townsend in Washington State.
I am posting this image for my friend, Rich, who's been "urging" me to post it for almost a month now. Finally he posted his version of it from his recent visit to the lighthouse as a nudge, so I can't hold out any longer :) See Rich's version of the lighthouse here: www.flickr.com/photos/116895768@N03/29731015573/in/datepo.... And while you're at it, take a look at his photostream. He's an awesome photographer!
A Ruined House
Those Who Lived Here Are Gone
Or Dead Or Desolate With Grief;
Of All Their Life Here
Nothing Remains
Except Their Trampled, Dirtied Clothes
Among The Dusty Bricks,
Their Marriage Bed, Rusty And Bent,
Thrown Down Aside As Useless;
And A Broken Toy Left By Their Child...
..."A footprint haunts an empty floor
A fading coat that I once wore
Oh, A desolation where I once lived
I have seen in times gone by
I have felt a different shadow on the wall
A stranglehold on a certain feeling
Reap the wild wind"...

Hverfjall crater near Myvatn lake in the north of Iceland.
This volcano is formed in the second volcanic cycle in this region. It began 2500 years ago with a gigantic but brief eruption, which formed the explosion crater (tephra ring).
Micah 7:13 “The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants, as the result of their deeds.”
This is from a recent walk along the Humber Estuary with Fred . The light did not play ball for what I thought might be an interesting sunset..
After the construction of the world famous "Afsluitdijk" the North Sea was definitively separated from the very dangerous "Zuiderzee", creating the "IJsselmeer".
As a result fishing disappeared , and many thousands of peoples became unemployed.
The buidlings of this industry also fell out of use and became in disrepair, such as the former fish auction in Laaxum (Friesland)
