Sólfar, a photo from Reykjavik, Reykjavik

Photographer's Note

Third and last picture of Reykjavik before discovering more wild places of Iceland ! Here is Sólfar, a work of art by Jón Gunnar Árnason inaugurated in 1990 and representing a drakkar. The photo was token at blue hour, with a subtle artifical light on the sculpture. I wanted to have a POV with Reykjavik bay in the background, but there was a huge yacht in the bay, owned by the american billionaire Paul Allen, co-founder of Microsoft (see the workshop).

Bonjour Olivier,

Un autre grand classique de la capitale islandaise !
Belle prise de vue nocturne où tu as capturé des teintes de bronze sur la sculpture.
