Einari, Iceland: First week.

Hello,

Here I am again first week is done and few is still ahead of me.

There has been so many things happening I don't know where to start, but let's just start.

First week is always first week, full of new places, things and people.

Now I can navigate by myself quite good in my opinion. I'm very glad that I bought bus card for a month and all I have doing is not using any busses. I just have been walking everywhere, I even walked to the place where I bought the card two days later and asked my money back. Yep I'm still holding a bus card.

I've been doing many different kind a things in Guðmundur's studio. I've been working with photoshop cleaning some dust and scratches among other things. Now it seems that I will spend long time in the dark. Guðmundur has taught me to develop black and white film in darkroom, and how to make contact sheets. He also borrowed me he's Pentax 67 II and gave me some black and white films, so some day I will be doing my own shots on that darkroom.

And for all of you Guðmundur can be written also like this: Gudmundur. Yes, and this guys is the man. He's been very generous and nice for me, he has shown me places and told me a thousand stories. Very interesting stories and things like that he's mother-in-law has been living in this very basement that I live now at Galtafell, cause long story short this has been her family's house some years ago.

I'm really grateful for all of the new people that I've met, somehow atmosphere here is more warm. And now I'm not talking about the weather, witch is also true but the people here somehow feels more caring and unselfish. I don't know is it the water here that makes that or is it because of all those tourists that they see here all year long.

But yeah, now I think is time to end writing on this lovely blog. For now I mean, I'll be back for some new Icelandic news and maybe some stories that involve me.

And for the end of this here is some photos I digitally took, these contain Gudmundur's studio outside and inside, two shots of Gudmundur working with he's Nikon on location and one shot with door and pole in it.

That's that, until next time.
Einari
