Yesterday I took a trip running up a trail in the mountains which surround Ólafsfjördur. Our close proximity to the mountains make them appear smaller than they indeed are; some of them reach over 1000 m in height.With only the odd sheep for company and no one else in sight, I climbed up and up to reach a small lake, after which the path become unclear as there was a fair bit of snow and ice up there. I am fascinated by the way snow and ice lies on the various land forms and how the colour changes subtly in the different light. The mountains and their shadows too are constantly changing and appear rich in colour ranging from almost neon greens to deep purples and browns.
