A cold and wet summer is coming to an end in Reykjavík—a summer where the temperature never exceeded 18°C / 64°F in the capital, and sunshine hours were far below the average of recent years, even decades. Icelandic Times put its best foot forward, with a camera on the shoulder, to capture the greyness of the capital yesterday; capture the city’s vibe that persists despite everything. Life inevitably goes on, despite the unpredictable climate. Walking around and capturing Reykjavík remains rewarding, regardless of the weather.
