Concrete

This past July, we visited a remote part of Iceland.  It was foggy but when we came to this tiny village, built up around an old herring factory, the sun started shining so we took it all in;  the sun and the warmth, the amazingly beautiful nature, the peace and quiet, the fabulous little town - and that huge, but long abandoned herring factory, which now housed a fantastic photography exhibition.  It's a visit I'll remember forever :)

Day to Remember
