Reykjavík

Street Photography, Travel Photography

Geysers, black sand beaches, a surreal plane crash site that’s worth a 4km trek, street names that could be any given track from a Sigur Rós record, and Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur - Anthony Bourdain and Bill Clinton's favorite hotdog*.


THAT ONE… (if you only have time for one...)
…place to shop/concept store: Geysir
…bookstore: Ida Zimzen
…bookstore where you’ll actually buy something: Eymundsson
…breakfast spot: Cafe Loki
…fast food guilty pleasure: Baejarins Beztu Pylsur (literal translation: “best hot dogs in town”)
…fancy meal: SNAPS
…forgivable tourist trap: Church of Hallgrimur (Hallgrímskirkja)
…place for Dudes: Lebowski Bar. Seriously.

10 cinematic street photos of Reykjavik, Iceland. NFT photography by @_elsewherelse. Leica M240. Color remastered using redsheep Chromavibe 160M+ and redsheep Luminoir 800M- February 2022.

*Recommended by Anthony Bourdain and Bill Clinton. Tony’s taste has always been a hit-or-miss for me, but when it comes to hotdogs, Bill definitely knows his stuff.
