I kinda like the shapes these create. #photos #iceland
The river in Hveragerði is in the foreground and a jagged construction site is in the background. The river runs in the foreground and another construction site is in the background. A fence, a hill, and power lines divide the photographic landscape in this black and white image.

Icelandic ravens stay in the countryside during the summer, but are urban in the winter. The cemetery in Gufunes usually has a bunch of them hanging around midwinter. Here in the south they tend to alternate between towns and in recent years usually arrive in Hveragerði in or around January.

Here's a bonus photo of a cat in the Villikettir cat shelter in Hveragerði from about a year ago.
A cat sitting on a radio stares out through a window at the photographer. The window is framed with snow-covered branches.

Scenes around the river Varmá here in Hveragerði were genuinely picturesque this week. #photos #iceland
One of the few remaining buildings of the old wool mill sits ruined by the river, half-bathed in sunlight, steam rising from the water Light shines through the steam over the water like rays.

The smaller birds were also out and about this week here in Hveragerði. Redpolls, redwings, and blackbirds #photos #iceland #bird #birds

So, during winter here in Hveragerði steam frosts on the plants in needle-like ice formations when it's cold. I'm guessing this can happen wherever humidity and frost combine, but it gives the plant life next to the river a unique look #photos #iceland #winter
A tree branch in silhouette. Needle-like ice grows out of the branch. Another tree branch with ice. The sun is setting and rising (this is midwinter in Iceland) in the background A photo that shows a whole tree covered in this kind of ice. The river is behind it. Long grass covered in ice. Behind it you can see the river and the remains of a 19th-century wool wool mill.

These are probably the spookiest from the foggy walk the other day #photos #iceland #hveragerði #blackandwhite

Because I tend to underuse colour. #photos #iceland #hveragerði #blackandwhite
As the fog was starting to roll in, you could still see hints of the sky above the trees A mossy rock and, I think, pine trees in the fog. Parallel barbed wire fences run along a geothermally active area and a lot of yellow grass.

These photos give you a little bit of a sense of how thick the fog was here the other day. #photos #iceland #hveragerði #blackandwhite
A view over a field half-covered in fog. You can see the vague outlines of drainage ditches In the distance through the fog, you can see old unused stables. A fence fades into the fog. A pedestrian bridge over the river Varmá fades into gray.

So, because editing and rewriting is where the magic happens, I decided to rework yesterday's "signs in fog" photos. Made the colours a little bit less natural and contrasty (still more natural than the average phone's defaults) #photos #iceland #hveragerði #iceland
An old tourist sign, now blank, decays in the fog A yellow warning sign about hot springs up ahead. A path winds past the sign into the fog A very yellow sign warning you about hot springs on the other side of the fence. You can't see the steam for the fog.

Það hefur verið stígandi í slysum á seinustu mánuðum: Fyrst var keyrt á barn á Hamrastekk, svo á barn á Álfabakka, svo ítrekað á börn á Reykjavegi á gangbraut, og nú tvisvar á konur sem höfðu græn ljós sín megin og önnur þeirra lést. /2

The town, Hveragerði, has a distinct aesthetic when it's still and cold and the geothermal steam sits over the landscape
Two people meet while out on a walk through a field with steam plumes on either side. Steam wafts up between the trees. The grass looks almost white in the cold Steam covers grass and encrusts them with a bit of ice

Ég að heimsækja vin minn sem býr í Hveragerði: Vá hvað það er geggjað hjá mér að keyra aðeins út úr bænum ég er flottur kall.
Þessi sami vinur: Keyrir í bæinn og til baka svona 5-6x í viku, bara hvað er merkilegt hérna?

Mind you, I'm pretty sure one of the reasons why tourists swim in the river here in Hveragerði is because they'd rather swim in the e. coli-filled run-off from the local farms than shower naked for the local pool, even though the pool is heated by exactly the same geothermal springs as the river

Mice are a common issue here in Hveragerði, old housing stock plus an abundance of commercial greenhouses make for a mouse-friendly environment.

Probably the reason why the town also has a lot of cats.
