Núpstaðir
Rebekka Guðleifsdóttir
I ought to spend more time on flickr. I thought I was so clever to discover photographer Rebekka Guðleifsdóttir, when it turns out she is a flickr superstar with a Prius campaign behind her. You go, girl.
In these photos, Iceland appears a lot like my idea of New Zealand – a jewel-toned, rugged paradise, grandly epic, yet solidly earthed in the matter-of-fact. Perfect for hobbits and elves. If it actually is that way, I want to visit.
Fairy Tale
Rebekka Guðleifsdóttir
Absolutely stunning. One of the more captivating people I met in graduate school is Icelandic. She is every bit as ethereal and zany as I imagined Icelanders to be. Based on what little I’ve seen of the landscape and the people, I really want to visit the island country sometime soon.
Seeing as I like to do work-travel projects, I might have a hard time finding an environmental project to work on…maybe I’ll just backpack around.
what truly wonderful images
