Harbour of Stykkisholmur, Iceland

This harbour was a surprise as we traveled the Ring Road around Iceland. There's a 360 degree view of beauty, both up close in the moss and flowers and far away across the bay to the mountains of Western Iceland. The orange lighthouse is delightful, and typical of Snaefellsnes Peninsula.#TROVEMBER
The weather was grey and dreary through the waterways of Iceland on the day that we ferried across. However, I was able to spot this lighthouse on a passing-by island! https://society6.com/heatherdoughtyphotography
