One night, under a heavy wind as only north of Iceland can provide, we where stuck in this lovely town of Stykkishólmur. Maybe not what you think first when checking what to visit in Iceland but this town and it’s region is worth the road! This church has been designed by Jón Haraldsson, concecration happened in 1980. The sweeping bell tower was thinked to looks like a whale vertebra. Some people will told you that it was drawn to be viking drakkar. The interior include a Madonna painting with child floating in the night sky, you will also notice the hundreds of suspended lights.

I passed by this chapel from a distance many times. After I had bad luck on another early morning sunrise trip because of bad weather, I thought why not giving this image a try. Aaaaand I think it was really worth it. The sun was actually perfect for shining right through the mini bell cage. It’s actually a tiny chapel, it only appears bigger on the picture. I definitely will visit this place again next year, earlier in autumn, when the colours are in full blast! I love the composition and the sun already in this picture however.
