Whooper swans and ducks on the Tjörnin, the city pond.

A patchwork of collage in an Icelandic artists’ exhibition.

A red timber house on a snowy downtown street.

Painted houses on a slope above Faxaflói.

Reykjavík’s coloured roofs from the tower of Hallgrímskirkja.

Red, yellow and green roofs under snow.
