    Iceland pictures

    Here I'm going to post a few pics that I took this year when I travelled with my familie around the country. Some of them are in bad focus 'cause they were taken from a driving car.

    Taken from a car huh? If you didn't say so, I would not have known had you not told me. I think they are great. The little white house with the 2 waterfalls would be an awsome place to live. So simple, yet amazing at the same time! Thanks for sharing the trip!

    Fantastic photos Gunnar! I've yet to visit Iceland, but it's top of the list on my roots route!

    Hope you're surviving the economic crisis. From the news we're getting here in the US it seems like the Icelanders are having a very rough go at present.

    Lovely shots and some great colour in the landscape and the sky.
    I have to admit I have only visited Iceland once, and I have no excuse, it is only a one hour and forty minutes flight from Scotland!

    well the financial crisis don't really reach to my, as I'm only a teenager, but people are losing alot of money, and some they'r entire savings. The unemployment rates were about 2% in the beginning of the year but now they are something like 10% and are constantly rising. But the governement have been given loans from IMF and alot from helpfull countries so I hope that things will get better. If they don't we'll probobly join the EU to get a new currency, the Euro.

    Great Pics!! I love the contrast in areas. Some are grassy and others rocky. The house with the two waterfalls behind looks like a grande place. One of these days, I'd love to visit. Good job!!
