This is what is left of the house (Klyppstadir) where the priest lived. A waterfall in background through the window in middle to the right. Maybe it looks like tears in eye but somehow I think it is still a home with open arms !

Baldur, the other two have still the shape of a house, this one has a very unusual form of what is left...it really looks like open arms as if saying, come to my memories,I was a beauty once...time can be cruel. interesting series. Pnina

Pnina, thank you very much for your thoughts. This is exactly my feeling for this "house". I have been interested in deserted farms in Iceland since 1978. Best regards, Baldur

An interesting and poignant collection of images, Baldur. I find with ultra wide angles it is important to judge how far away from the subject to take the shot as too close and it has no context and too far away it disappears unto nothing. Your three shots are all very well judged imo though the waterfall takes a bit of spotting at PN size.

Colin, thank you very much for your kind and helpful comment. I have been interested in this kind of photography for a long time. My feeling for many of these houses is that they have a soul. Best regards, Baldur

Armindo, many thanks for your visit and thoughts.

The priest used to live in this house long time ago. Now it seems to be natural carpet there. The waterfall in the window reminded me of tears in a eye. I felt the house missing the family who once lived there.
