Lenticular

August, and a beautiful balmy day with a brisk and refreshing wind blowing in from the sea.

The moisture laden air met the mountains and was forced upwards across the glaciers. The result was these spectacular disks of cloud, briefly spinning over the peaks.

Huge, and quite bizarre!

The tall mountain beneath the cloud is Reyðarártindur¹ in Lón, south-eastern Iceland.

Something from the archive for #TravelThursday and if you guessed Amsterdam just from looking at this canal shot then you'd be right. This was our second ever visit to the Dutch capital, from 2019, and took place on Liberation Day so we were able to follow up our visits to a few museums with a free music festival in the city late in the evening. Lovely city even if it's become a bit more hostile to tourism and travellers in recent years.

I don't know how it is now, but back in 2013, there was a street on Heimaey island in Iceland with colourful fishes painted on it that would lead you to the harbour.
