In the last couple of years some awesome inner city hotels and eateries have opened up on Perth. These were some of my highlights from day 1 of photographing in the city area for Open House Perth.
Open House Perth 2018, Part I
Open House Perth is one of many annual events held in Perth. Open House started out in the UK as an architectural event showcasing the importance of good design. It has expanded to a heap of cities around the world and Perth is one of them! The first event in Perth was back in 2012 and I found out about it a few years ago from a friend. Since then I’ve attended for the last few years. It’s very much grown into a big event in Perth. Getting people to get out and about exploring our own backyard. Not only that, you also get to go behind the scenes and into buildings that you don’t normally get to visit. Whether it’s people’s architecturally designed homes or corporate buildings and rooftops. There’s something for everyone. From the inner cities areas of North Perth and Mt Hawthorn to the Perth Hills in the east. Down to Fremantle and cross to the western beachy suburbs. In the past I’ve been to buildings such as Brookfield, QV1 and Channel 9 News. You can check blog posts from Open House Perth 2017 here, here and here. Blog posts from Open House Perth 2016 can be found here, here, here and here. [Read more…]
Icelandic houses and Aurora Borealis at Stykkishólmur, Iceland
After a big day and a long drive, we arrived at our next accommodation, the charming town of Stykkisholmur . It was late afternoon by the time we arrived in town. We decided to take a walk through the quaint little town, towards the harbour and Súgandisey. Súgandisey is a basalt island next to the harbour that was recommended by our hotel staff. Climbing up the stairs, we got an amazing view of the town and the bay. The photo above is one of my favourites, I love the late afternoon sunset that coloured the sky.
Kirkjufell, Iceland’s most photographed mountain
If you have been to Iceland or have been contemplating going to Iceland, you have probably come across one of Iceland’s most iconic mountains. Kirkjufell, the 463m mountain has very well photographed by thousands of photographers. You have no doubt seen much better shots than what I’ll be sharing below. Popularised in part by Game of Thrones. But mostly because it’s a very photogenic mountain, especially when photographed at certain times of the day.
Walking Arnarstapi to Hellnar and the Black Church, Snaefellsnes, Iceland
Snaefellsnes Peninsula in Iceland is a very popular spot for travellers to Iceland. Fjords, cliff walks, volcanic peaks, glaciers and beaches are some of the highlights.
The walk from Arnarstapi to Hellnar is one of the easier and more popular short walks in Iceland. We were very fortunate to have a blue sky sunny day when we visited Arnarstapi. We parked the car and leisurely made our way to Hellnar. We were treated to stunning sea side views, magnificent cliffs and moss-covered lava fields. It was one of my favourite places in Iceland. You could easily do a return walk in 2 hours. The landscape was a photographer’s paradise.
