As predicted, the snow has all washed away in a cold rain. This image was taken, though, a few weeks ago before that first dusting of white noted in the last post. It's a bit of mossy lava peeking out from cold-bleached straw just south of Hafnarfjörður, but for the life of me it looks like the body of a man, resting comatose or dead, or a night troll caught out in sunlight and turned to stone on the barren landscape.
Today is voting day as Alda of The Iceland Weather Report can explain most clearly, and by the end of the day we'll see if this cold rocky figure is an accurate representation of the state of the nation's soul.

This is a beautiful photograph. It does look like a man!
To me it looks like a black dog resting with a brown bear.
I thought it looked like a sea turtle! Aren't we all so imaginative?
A man...that's what I thought, the moment the image appeared on my screen! It looks like his legs are crossed over as well. Very nice capture, the moss is beautiful. Love the different textures too.
Love the photos - and the glimpse into your beautiful country. - Mark
