My Scholarship entry - A 'place' I have visited

The strange, vast, lonely, emptiness of Iceland is sometimes interrupted by a strange sign of human life, resulting in a surreal image of nature subtly stamped by the footprint of mankind.The precariously placed single glove on top of this warning meant to discourage unattended glacier climbing is both humorous and creepy.
