One my trip to Snæfellsnes last weekend I drove the north coast of the peninsula. On that side of the very narrow peninsula there weather was totally different that on the south side. The steep and high mountains that run along the length of the peninsula can cause extreme differences in weather between the south and north coast.
This time the north coast was windy and snowy. The south part of calm and cloudy.
I dont know the name of this old farm but its located close to Grundarfjörður and the beautiful peak of Kirkjufell.
I gave this shot this title because, I seem to get the sense of isolation whenever I see this picture.
Learning new ways to use my camera to document myself. Something I've did during my 29 months of homelessness, but I was more documenting what I was going through, situations I was dealing with and obstacles I had to get over. I wasn't really documenting me. I know that may seem crazy but I guess what I saying is, this time the camera is pointed at me. I'm pointing the camera at me.
Everyone doing their own thing. For some reason, Iike it.
Funny story about the man in the safety vest. Surrounding the lighthouse is a golf course. I first noticed this man by the fence, picking up golf balls with his litter-picker-upper and *fliinging* them back onto the fairway. He was a pro and could pluck those things and flick his wrist. Later he was near the tee at the edge of the fence and he looked at the men teeing off with such distain, we thought he woudl chew them out for knocking ball into his yard.
There's a saying 'never work with animals or children' but for me people generally can be top of that list when it comes to photography. It's certainly not a subject I'm comfortable with, and would rather photograph animals any time.
After looking back on the shots I took Friday I've learned a few lessons regarding photographing people, the most important of which is 'isolation'. There is nothing more irritating than having a perfect moment spoiled by a stray arm, blurred head or frankly any part of anybody else - usually the problem in family gatherings.
However a good lesson I also learned is if you're taking photos you can tell exactly the moment you turned from jolly to drunk by examining the evidence - especially if you're manual focusing. This can be a godsend if you're in dispute with your partner the following day about exactly when you should have stopped drinking!

This morning, we visited an antique sale the next county over. It was located on the same grounds where colonial village reenactments are held, so they were some period looking structures scattered around.
This processing is a bit of a departure from my usual style, but it is a stockade after all. And stockades really don't lend themselves to bright, happy colors.
