Looking for my mojo...

Haven't been much online lately... mainly because I seem to have lost my photo mojo*... so now I'm looking for it in every nook and cranny ;o) ... and as you can see - Kisi couldn't care less! :D

*Since I only know the word "mojo" from Austin Powers I decided to google it and see what turned up. This is what wikipedia says:

"Mojo refers to a magical charm bag used in hoodoo. In modern usage it may also metaphorically refer to possessing a "magic touch" of creativity or charm."

Sometimes I think Kisi takes this depression thing a bit too seriously... he wants to help out and brings home food :o)

Last week he brought me this present, laid it at my feet for acceptance and praise and then proceeded to eat it.

I took photos of the leftovers but I very much doubt you'd like to see those...

... crazy days of summer

Still uploading "oldies" :o) This one is taken last summer.

Just outside of Hafnarfjörður where I live, there is an aluminium plant. It is situated in a very beautiful place where the lava meets the ocean. Strange mix...

Looks better in the original size.

... not only with the Icelandic nature, but also with the camera that allows me to capture it and share it with you! Thank you so much Ragga for letting me use this beauty called 5D Mark II... or maybe I shouldn't thank you cause now I'm lovesick! LOL :D

I love going down to the harbour... the smell and the sounds remind me of the town where I was born and where I grew up - Húsavík :o)

Aaaahhhh... peace and quiet...

Tonight was frosty, clear and beautiful, so I drove with my daughter to one of my favourite places near Hafnarfjörður. It's a lake called Hvaleyrarvatn and it's as beautiful in winter as it is in summer...
