Eyrarbakki in time
Modernity meets the old times. Electricity, and television antennas linking the old house to the world.
The old street has almost not changed over the centuries. Thus Eyrarbakki, always the same.
This old man is no longer collecting hay in his spot. But the spot is still the same place and some other old man will beat spot ever.
