Just a quick update today, as I’ve had a few computer problems and time is tight… Yesterday we were picked up from the hotel in two enormous “superjeeps”, which started life as Nissan Patrols but now stand about 10ft tall, Continue reading
And here’s some more of the flower of Iceland’s youth! Judging by the outfits Reykjavik has at least two pole dancing clubs in competition with one another. I would say it keeps them off the streets, but of course yesterday Continue reading
I wanted to show the breadth of the “Culture Night”, and was torn between these three cute Icelandic maidens singing their very tuneful folk songs, and the pole dancing. I suspect in the interests of journalistic integrity I have to Continue reading

I decided a while ago that it would be useful to “geotag” my photographs, i.e. to automatically record the location from which each is taken and add that to each images’s metadata. As my next photographic trip is to Iceland Continue reading
Not literally, unfortunately, but I’m finally getting on top of my shots from last November’s trip, and I thought I’d share some of them with you. Here’s one I rather liked of a green car under dappled light on the Continue reading
