September 2024

I’d been after this shot for a decade or more. I’ve always liked Sólfar, and had hoped to one day see the northern lights dancing above it. One weekend in September of 2024, I was at Microbar when a few tourists came in excited to have just seen the aurora. I stepped outside, but saw nothing. Later in the evening, I decided to walk home via Sæbraut instead of down Laugavegur. It was around 1a when I saw this. I think I took 90-something pictures. It was cold, I was carrying my leftover food, and a bit tipsy. Just a few pictures were in focus.
