Bells.

On the same note as below, I go through a phase every few months where I watch a whole string of videos of just church bells. I don't really know why, but there is something eerie and ancient about them that I particularly love.

This is one of the bells in the church pictured below, Hallgrímskirkja, in Reykjavík, Iceland, which I think is one of the eerier and more delightfully mysterious churches I know of. I'd love to visit this place.

Just imagine hearing this bell toll from that ethereal tower on a cold Icelandic evening, ringing out over the tundra. Makes me creepily glad just thinking about it.
