Stykkísholmur

At the request of one of my most diligent blog followers (my dad), I have made another panorama of images pieced together from Iceland. This is 360 degrees around of the town of Stykkísholmur and its harbour, on the Snæfellsnes peninsula.

Northern Lights

From the evening when I was shooting and the Northern Lights came out. They are harder to photography than I thought. It's interesting though how the Holga made this large curvy burn at the top of the pictures.

Double Exposures

Some more Holga double exposures I made in Iceland:
Hverfjall crater near Myvatn and the sky.

Lighthouse, further up the peninsula from Skagaströnd.

Dimmuborgir gate, mountains, lava rocks and sky near Myvatn.

Iceland Holga Panorama


Now home from Iceland, I have been working on photoshopping all of the photos I took there. I made some images with my Holga camera, which I like to think of as my "sketching" camera. By that I mean that I use it to take experimental pictures that won't necessarily turn into a body of work. In this picture, I tried to make an in-camera panorama of a beautiful beach we found after a long hike in the Snæfellsnes Peninsula.

Iceland Underwater

I went on a diving trip this past weekend, in Eyjafjor∂ur and around the North of Iceland, then down to Silfra in Thingvellir Naitonal Park. It was so beautiful and freezing cold! I am thinking about how to pair up underwater images with above-water images. Here are some with similarities.

Car Ride

I went on a couple of trips this week and entertained myself in the car by taking exposures of 4-8 seconds out the window. This is approaching the town of Varmahli∂ on the way back from Myvatn.


These are on the way back to Skagaströnd from Snæfellsnes.
