Although recently built, this city hall has one wall with running water and moss growing on it. Thought this might be a nice twist, don't think it will score high though, pretty abstract maybe for this site.

Ãerra er sannarlega nýtt sjónarhorn á borginni, skemmtileg mynd, soldið artý ;)

Ãað er ekkert annað. Alltaf gaman af svona abstract skotum. Spurning hvort það hefði verið gaman að sjá smá grænt hægra megin við gráa svæðið? Annars mjög fín myndbygging. Mér finnst hún samt halla smá. Hefði verið magnað ef þú hefðir tekið hana alveg beint á gluggann. Pirrar mig smá. Annars mjög sáttur. Góð einkun frá mér.

Amazing textures to this building. But the narrow viewpoint gives little idea of
where you live.

I think some people will not care much for the abstractness of this, but you've done it so incredibly well and I love it. The detail is wonderful, composition is perfectly balanced, and the green and gray combination works very well. 9

I would imagine you icelanders find it difficult to walk to the shops for a pint of milk without stumbling over something incredibly photogenic. I have always wanted to see and explore your strange and wonderful land, and DPChallenge just makes the longing worse. Anyway - I like this very much. I do think that a very slight reduction in brightness might have been worthwhile, and it might appear picky, but i might have cropped the last 10mm off the right. But aside from that, very little appears wrong with it, and i hope it does well!

Nice colors and lines. The circular object breaks it up nicely.

Töff, þessu hluti hússins er sennilega ein furðulegasta bygging Ãslands.

Hmm not sure about this, to me it doesn't give us much idea about where you live, just a wall. Its very well taken and very interesting but I'll have tothink about it and change the points later
