Images From Reykjavik Harbor — wk 38

This morning I arrived at Reykjavik for another trip to Iceland. As usual the weather in Iceland changes every 5 minutes. Today it was overcast and rainy… but I did get a glimpse of blue skies and sunshine on distant mountains. Along the shore is a magnificent sculpture “Sun Warrior” that I captured in this image.

I took a walk through the harbor, looking for a late breakfast. While there, I noticed clouds of spray emanating from bow thrusters of a ship on the spilway.

That got me interested. On the other side, a dock worker was doing some high-pressure waterjet cleaning.

This ship took my interest because of the unusual shape for the bow.

In the back street was an interesting bike rack made of welded chain links with colorful seating in the background.

Stopping at Cafe Haiti, I got a bite to eat before returning back to car. Passing the bike rack again, I made some blurred images of the bike rack — by de-focusing the lens. This exaggerated all the colors.

Close to bike rack, I found some unusual seating. Two stainless steel propeller blades attached to the wall.

That completes some initial images before looking for the hostel.
