Robert Cook Portfolios

Driving around Iceland, you come across small, isolated churches which seem to offer refuge and community during brutal winters. This "black church" is one of the most beautiful.

Iceland the THE PLACE for waterfalls. There's one around each turn of the road. "Foss" means "waterfall" and that exhausts my knowledge of Icelandic.
