the beach is black.

A Vittorio Arrigoni

       

Hanno ucciso tutti

 

Hanno ucciso tutti

 

hanno ucciso tutti i minareti

 

e le dolci campane

 

uccise le pianure e la spiaggia snella

 

ucciso l’amore e i destrieri tutti, hanno ucciso il nitrito.

 

Per te sia buono il mattino.

 

Non ti hanno conosciuto

 

non ti hanno conosciuto fiume straripante di gigli

 

e bellezza di un tralcio sulla porta del giorno

 

e delicato stillare di corda

 

e canto di fiumi, di fiori e di amore bello.

 

Per te sia buono il mattino.

 

Non hanno conosciuto un paese che vola su ala di farfalla

 

e il richiamo di una coppia di uccelli all’alba lontana

 

e una bambina triste

 

per un sogno semplice e buono

 

che un caccia ha scaraventato nella terra dell’impossibile.

 

Per te sia buono il mattino.

 

No, loro non hanno amato la terra che tu hai amato

 

intontiti da alberi e ruscelli sopra gli alberi

 

non hanno visto i fiori sopravvissuti al bombardamento

 

che gioiosi traboccano e svettano come palme.

 

Non hanno conosciuto Gerusalemme … la Galilea

 

nei loro cuori non c’è appuntamento con un’onda e una poesia

 

con i soli di dio nell’uva di Hebron,

 

non sono innamorati degli alberi con cui tu hai parlato

 

non hanno conosciuto la luna che tu hai abbracciato

 

non hanno custodito la speranza che tu hai accarezzato

 

la loro notte non si espone al sole

 

alla nobile gioia.

 

Che cosa diremo a questo sole che attraversa i nostri nomi?

 

Che cosa diremo al nostro mare?

 

Che cosa diremo a noi stessi? Ai nostri piccoli?

 

Alla nostra lunga dura notte?

 

Dormi! Tutta questa morte basta

 

a farli morire tutti di vergogna e di sconcezza.

 

Dormi bel bambino.

 

Hassan Nasrallah

Taken on my holga (it's all plastic) on 100 ISO velvia 120 slidefilm. Vik's were terrible on this, mine look much better than I expected.

 

The slidefilm has been processed as normal film, which is why there's a pink tinge to this and there's a strange texture.

 

This is double exposed as well - so taking a number of pics before winding the film on - lots of very faint Viks

Vik Muniz: Reflex (P.S.1)

the most southern village in Iceland

The black basalt sands of the beach at Vík, Iceland.

On our last day in Iceland we did the South Coast Tour ... heading south towards Vik, the southernmost town on the island ... passing through a very different part of Iceland.

 

This is Vik ... the southernmost town in Iceland. Here we stopped for lunch.

Druing the first part of the trip the boat didn't stop much. But after it got deeper into the fjord, it stopped at many idyllic little towns.

 

Our huge thanks to brendadada for lending us her Olympus XA2. I'll post it back very shortly - but I need one of these!

Reynisdrangar are basalt sea stacks situated under the mountain Reynisfjall near the village Vík í Mýrdal, southern Iceland.

 

Legend says that the stacks originated when two trolls dragged a three-masted ship to land unsuccessfully and when daylight broke they became needles of rock

  

The village of Vík (or Vík í Mýrdal in full) is the southernmost village in Iceland, located on the main ring road around the island, around 180 km (110 mi) by road southeast of Reykjavík.

 

Despite its small size (291 inhabitants as of January 2011) it is the largest settlement for some 70 km (43 mi) around and is an important staging post, thus it is indicated on road signs from a long distance away. It is an important service center for the inhabitants and visitors to the coastal strip between Skógar and the west edge of the Mýrdalssandur glacial outwash plain.

 

In 1991, the American journal Islands Magazine counted this beach as one of the ten most beautiful beaches on Earth. Its stretch of black basalt sand is one of the wettest places in Iceland. The cliffs west of the beach are home to many seabirds, most notably puffins which burrow into the shallow soils during the nesting season. Offshore lie fingers of basalt rock (stacks) remnants of a once more extensive cliffline Reynisfjall now battered by the sea. There is no landmass between here and Antarctica and the Atlantic rollers can attack with full force. Folklore tells us that they are former trolls who tried to drag their boats out to sea only to be caught by the rising dawn. The sea around them is rather wild and stormy, so travelers will not be surprised to discover a monument to the memory of drowned seamen on the beach.

 

The village was affected by volcanic ash during the 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull.

 

Vík lies directly beneath the Mýrdalsjökull glacier, which itself is on top of the Katla volcano. Katla has not erupted since 1918, and this longer than typical repose period has led to speculation that an eruption may occur soon. An eruption of Katla could melt enough ice to trigger an enormous flash flood, potentially large enough to obliterate the entire town. The town's church, located high on a hill, is believed to be the only building that would survive such a flood .
