The Cold Never Bothered The Invisible Man #GVPics

Reykjavík’s been snowy, rainy and sunny all in the span of two weeks. The only thing that´s been steady for a few days is the fireworks you hear everywhere around. And every year, it gets people outside to take spectacular photos.

Check out the winner and runners-up and remember to keep tagging your pictures with #gvpics for a chance at becoming next week’s champion!

One of the most beautiful place to catch the firework spectacle on New Year’s Eve.

Best NYE ever, Icelanders sure know how to celebrate! . . . #VSCOcam #VSCO #vscoiceland #iceland #exploreiceland #inspiredbyiceland #visiticeland #bestplacestogo #exploremore #neverstopexploring #igscandinavia #everydayiceland #ísland #reykjavík #bestoficeland #ig_iceland #igersiceland #gvpics #wonderlust #exploretocreate #mytinyatlas #everydayiceland #epiciceland #visualsoflife #LF10k #newyear #fireworks #hallgrimskirkja

Looks like something out of a Star Wars story

And the winner is

A little known Icelandic Christmas tradition is Skötuhreinsa, the Airing Out of Dry Clean-Only Garments. It is usually performed overnight from the 23rd of December, after the traditional Þorláksmessa meal of putrified skate, until the afternoon of the 24th or whenever it starts raining horizontally again. . . #atlasobscura #funfacts #iceland #christmastraditions #jóla #skata #skötuveisla #pungent #laundry #clothesline #reykjavik #gvpics #sadjacket
