Hveragerði - Facing hot springs at the top of the village (Suðurland), Iceland
Les fumées au loin avaient attiré mon attention, je pensais à des Premières Nations qui tentaient de communiquer avec moi. Les bains bouillonnants avaient changé mon avis du tout ou tout. Les cercles bleutés aux reflets bullés avaient la magie d'un cataclysme - quelle puissance pouvait donc bien sortir de cette Terre? J'ai fini par m'imaginer cette Terre comme une géante machinerie en constant mouvement, et en constante agitation - nous les Hommes, ne sommes que de rapides rapaces comparés à cette machine infernale.
The smokes at the horizon were talking, I thought that First Nations tried to communicate with me. The foaming baths changed my mind from one way to another. The blue circles with bubbles had the fantasy of a cataclysm - what kind of power could come out from Earth? I finally imagined this Earth as a giant machinery always moving, and always agitated - us, Humans are only small eagles compared to that diabolical machinery.
