It's hard to describe, this view. To many, it seems boring, the same everyday. Lava fields, ocean, fishing boats, dark skies. Each has it's own magic that changes everyday. You just have to look for it.

It's still dark most of the time. We gradually earn a few precious minutes of sunlight each day.

People tell me, oh it must be so sad when the sun goes away. I really enjoy the darkness of winter. It has a beauty all it's own.

Thank you for sharing, Poppi.
Actually a trip to Iceland to experience the Northern Lights and to see the Lake Myvatn area is on the "short list" travel itenerary for the kids and me.
Is the viewing still good around Easter time-ish????

night is a state of mind.
Most glorious night!

SAD seems to be more of an american thing. We tend to slow down in winter to adjust to the darkening skies. I do feel sad in winter sometimes, but thats more because of anniversaries of lost loved ones than the lack of light. I do have a sunlamp I use, because it is good for osteoporosis, the Vit D.
