After last week’s inaugural #GVpics Instagram contest, it’s time for round two. The first week had a joint winner featuring maximum sheep, with Grapevine t-shirts now on their way to @ingibjorgolafs and @hannes_nrm. This week, the prize is modeled by part-time comedian and full-time babe York Underwood:

You still have an hour to enter this week’s Instagram contest and win a Grapevine t-shirt. Hashtag your #KoolcelandPix with #gvpics to enter!

This Week’s Runners-Up:

Doing this is like the most tempting thing… (but hey if yr gonna go run screaming into the moss, be careful not to damage it or fall down a moss-covered hole).

 

Oh #dailydale, where are you going? The shot looks just fine from here #dailydale #europe #iceland #lava #shrek #tourist #green #bouncy #gvpics

Even the most jaded, grumbling anti-krútt cynic must get a twinge in their icy heart at stuff like this now and then. Right?

And The Winner Is:

We liked the action and atmosphere of this breaching-child shot, taken at Seljavallalaug, a crumbling, semi-disused outdoor pool on the south coast. So we’ll give one t-shirt to the photographer, and one to the subject. We don’t have kid sizes but uhh, maybe he can grow into it?

As soon as I get back to my boy we’re going swimming! He seems to like it. #heima #iceland #seljavallalaug
