We continue our journey around Iceland; this time we had to take a stroll through a glacier and a trip around all the fjords of the east and north.

The day had finally arrived, we were at home trying to fit a camping backpack with fleeces, hats, and boots in the middle of August because that night we were leaving for Iceland! The next morning would start two exciting weeks of travel by car along Highway 1, around the country.

Wikipedia says: Autumn is one of the four temperate seasons. Autumn marks the transition from summer into winter usually in September (Northern Hemisphere) or March (Southern Hemisphere) when the arrival of night becomes noticeably earlier. For me, autumn is a time of change. It's also a time of tea, cookies, and candles.

This is basically an advertisement for the country of Iceland, of Jökulsárlón in particular. Easily accessible through Route 1, which goes all around Iceland, the epitome of peacefulness is situated in the south of the country.

A music festival in downtown Reykjavík where some of the world's most exciting bands play alongside Icelandic artists!

Welcome to Iceland, where fire literally meets ice, not only Bjork puts Iceland on the map but also places like Jökulsárlón. Planning on going here for a trip? Well make sure to load up on film as there wouldn't be any film shops available on the way to this place. You certainly can't miss out on the amazing photo opportunities that this place offers.

The time seemed right to head north to the island of the vikings, geysirs and especially the Eyjafjallajökull!
Said so, done so, we boarded the plane, rented a 4x4 and hit the roads...

Ever been to a Stratovulcano? No? You don't even know what it is? Common! Stay with me and climb onto one of the madest glaciers of Iceland.

Over the past year, we've been teaming up with New York City's man-about-town, "Nicky Digital":http://www.nickydigital.com/, creating a Lomographic diary of his nightlife adventures.

Close to Skútustaðir, around the Northern Icelandic coast, is nothing to see. Literally. Because it is a land of fog. Massive sulfur-sources stink and make a lot of thick air. So if you want to see not to see, get your charter flight to Iceland. And by the way, the exchange rate is excellent these days!

I'm a new lomographic photographer, discovering the Diana with fun and lot of pleasure!!! i brought my camera to Iceland, taking pictures with no idea if some would work or not... (well, everybody knows that the Diana is a bit capricious... definitely fun, but capricious...). i enjoyed moving in reykjavik and around trying to remember what i shot, switching from a digital photographer mind to a new one, loading films and taking them off with the feeling that something good was going on... this was my first rolls with a plastic camera...

Since Reykjavik is a very small capital you really can walk to Hallgrímskirkja on foot. And hence it’s so huge you probably see the tip of it from every point of the city. Interesting how the Icelandic people deal with religion. Surely it means a great deal to the people if you live on a cold rock with nothing on but ice. But with their special and awkwardly great sense for style and design they have set their mark even on the architecture of sacred places.

The National Church of Iceland or as we Icelandic tourist say "Þjóðkirkjan", is truly Lutheran. As so there is not much of the glamor and the whole „passion of the Christ“ hollywoodesque show you maybe would expect in catholic regions. No, Iceland is rough and plain and so are the churches.

Packrat Prologue: Redeye to Reykjavik

Iceland – the land of Vikings, hot springs, volcanoes and Hákarl (putrefied shark)…. where the beer flows plentifully and the coffee has kick…. what more could you ask for? The landscape is stunning with active steam vents lining the countryside, basalt as far as the eye can see and volcanoes popping up amidst the dramatic and rolling landscape. A “Disneyland” for a volcanologist like me!

A city of just over 120,000, home to almost half of the population of Iceland, Reykjavik is a modern European city with traditional charm, offering a little of everything to a wandering traveler. The cafes serve wonderful coffee, delicious chocolate cake and cold Viking beer.
