Above Gullfoss - Study II
Gullfoss has its origin in a glacier lake about 40km north of Gullfoss in Lángjökull glacier.
Sigríður Tómasdóttir, the daughter of Tómas Tómasson who owned the waterfall in the first half of the 20th century lived at a farm nearby and loved Gullfoss, so much so that she protested very strongly against foreign investors who wanted to build a hydroelectric powerplant and which would have changed and destroyed Gullfoss forever. She was the one that protested so intensely against these plans, even going as far as to threaten to throw herself into Gullfoss and kill herself. As a result powerplant at Gullfoss was never built.
It's, therefore, thanks to her that Gullfoss remains the beautiful, uplifting and impressive experience it remains today.GullfossIcelandLandscapeLandscapesPlacesReykjanes PeninsulaWaterfallbwblack and white

Búðakirkja Church, Búðir, Snaefellsnes Peninsula, Iceland - Study II
The church at Búðir was built in 1703 but was later demolished. In 1816 the parish at Búðir was abolished but Steinunn Sveinsdóttir, one of the ladies of the parish, fought strongly for a new church but the national church rejected her request. Eventually Steinunn received royal permission to build a new, which stood ready in 1848. Between 1984 and 1986 the church was reconstructed and reconsecrated in 1987.
