I seen a sunrise from a plain.


When we reach an airport it was still dark. After take off I was observing empty surfaces covered by snow. Here and there were I saw small groups of lights – small estates.
Few minutes later we flew into light. Probably we reached the sunrise sooner then it is usually on the land. The spell was broken…


The Vikings boat


It was unbelievably cold. We went firstly to the cathedral then to see the sculpture of the boats of Vikings. Nothing more the essence of Reykjavik.

Colorful butterflies on Reykjavik wall.

teardrop


I was looking for my favorite piece of art in The Museum of Modern Art in Reykjavik. I went to the exhibition hall. It was on the ground level. In the right side there was a few big windows reaching from the ground to the top of the building. I was being encouraged to go outside by them. It looked like an open surface, but of course it was not open – there was a glass in windows… glass with drops of rain on it… I found a plate with an inscription: “Harpa Arnadottir. They hang on the heavenly hooks (the tears). I stand for a while under a roof of rain.”
My first impression was that it is about those windows… but it was strange… it is not a roof… then I sow it: a pane with a drops of rain above me! The cottectoion between inside and outside of a museum, between the museum and the exhibition, the tears of rain and the tears in my soul…

Asvallagata


Asvallagata – we were missed there many times. We knew the name of the street and how looked a house and a fence. The name of the street become a vulgar word in jokes: “och, the weather is so windy today, asvallagata!!!”

in my room


Girls went to a kitchen to make tea. They left the doors open. Going to a bathroom I noticed a cat paying them a visit. Them? The cat live in the house, we were guests… He only controlled his own window…

In the picture: I suppose his is a dog with a man and a woman. I took the pictures in Aarhus in the morning when I was going to for a meeting. I could see it from my window in a hotel, but in to big distance to take a photo.

old people



We went to Aarhus via Copenhagen. We had a lot of time between flights, so we went to the city. In some cafeteria I had the last good coffee in that week. After that we were walking around. I found graffiti I don’t like. In the pictures: I don’t accept destroying beautiful things. Those sculptures should be save from such “improving”.

Smile



The Institution I work for moved our office in other place. I go to my work by bus. I got out on the stop next to Academy of Mining and Metallurgy. Then I turn left and go along main street. The way is long and, especially in wintertime, not very nice, but I smile at least one time – when I pass a gate smiling to me.

two girls



I was observing two girls in pub, when I was in Cambridge. They were playing darts. Both had very short hair, both were wearing blue jeans and green cotton blouse. They looked each other with love and happiness. They were rally beautiful with this affection…

bicycles

How strong are patterns build in our conscious up… Usually when I ask my dog to “sit” and “stay in the position” I show him my raised hand in “stop” sign. When I was walking on Cambridge’s streets I knocked one of thousand bicycle staying there. I caught it before it had felt down. I placed it again, leaned against a wall and finally put my hand in the position „stay” like for a dog. I even said “stay!”. My friend was joking : “Oh! It is obedient!”

Cambridge in the morning


I’ve spent three days in Cambridge. The travel was not very fruitful because of irresponsibility of our partners. I’m not worry about this very much, however it makes some difficulties for us. The photo was made when we were going for the first meeting with them. We didn’t know that we will get bad news.
