Lighting a cigarette, Aðalstraeti, Reykjavik
Smoker, Aðalstraeti, Reykjavik, Iceland, October 1992 - Aðalstraeti was packed on weekends, people drinking homemade booze from pop bottles and older and richer people drunk club hoping.
Althing, Reykjavik, 1992
This little building is the Icelandic Parliament. A man stopped and asked me what I was photographing. (Objectiv, I think, in Icelandic). I said I liked the way it was divided into three parts, the water, wall and skyline, and the way the green dome was contrasted by the red hair of the woman reading. Iceland is so small that by describing the man to someone else, I learned he was a University professor.

West Montrose Bridge, bicycle
Filming location for: In the Mouth of Madness, (1994), To Die For (1995), It (2017). Even though it's been in two horror and a crime film, it's also called "The Kissing Bridge" as dating couples were supposed to be able to kiss without being seen when crossing it in a carriage. Horse drawn carriages still use it as the bridge is in a Mennonite/Amish region.
