Seyðisfjörður is a remote fisherman village in the far east of Iceland. It is accessible by a mountain pass road that is open only in summer. Last summer we traveled by night to get good light for photography, and slept in the morning. We arrived at the picturesque town at around 3:30 in the early morning for sunrise. There were clouds, but the sun managed to penetrate to cast some light on the town and port.

Early November we had some rain in the Silicon Valley. The rain stopped before sunset so in anticipation of a potential nice sunset I headed up on Mt. Hamilton. It was too cloudy for a sunset photo.
