Initially I was in Reykjavik on an other assignment, but I was lucky to be able to stop by the Harpa and take some pictures. The town is very small, so I got to visit the building multiple times during different times of day.

When I first saw the Harpa building in Reykjavik, I was stunned. The metal, glass and light combined into a magnificent construction. My approach to architecture photography is to study the building from all angles, inside and out, before I take the pictures. I want to feel the mood and explore the place before I grab my camera.

I used my Fujifilm x100s to take the pictures, with its similar to 35mm objective. Great for architecture!
