Walking around the streets of Akureyri, the main town in the north of Iceland, I didn't find much to inspire me photographically until I was confronted with this amazing and huge piece of street art, covering the side of a building just along the main shopping street.
This photo shows the portrait in isolation, showing the quality and detail of the artist's efforts and skill.
I also photographed the portrait in context, as part of a busy street scene, giving an idea of the scale of the work.
Well - I wasn't expecting that!
