Hallgr匇skirkja, a photo from Reykjavik, Reykjavik

Photographer's Note

Hallgr匇skirkja is easily the most prominent feature on the Reykjav勛 skyline. It is a Lutheran church named after the Icelandic poet and clergyman Hallgr匇ur P騁ursson.

It is 244 feet high - and is therefore the sixth highest structure in the country. However - due to it's position on a hill in the city - it appears to be by far the tallest building in town.

It is possible to climb the tower for great views of the city and surrounding mountains.

Hi Christopher
an amazing POV of an amazing looking church. It looks like something out of the Lord Of The Rings. So imposing and impressive. A flawless execution full of clarity and detail and I must say a truly awesome presentation. Stunning and strangley a bit scary! :-)

Have a great weekend - regards Brian.
