Having traveled extensively when I was much younger, I notice the change in so many of the areas that I have returned to after 40 years. Unfortunately that is the ugly truth of progress. Tourism creates jobs, brings in money, creates opportunities for people to have business that they might otherwise not have been able to have. Right now, Iceland is cashing in on its newfound popularity and it has changed, and maybe there are many there who lament the number of tourists who trample through their country, but at the end of the day, the Icelanders are bringing home a paycheck, and I doubt that they would like to see that go away, having already been in a financial crisis. While in Newfoundland some years ago, photographing the area that I was in, and complimenting a Newfoundlander on the beautiful scenery and how I hoped that tourism wouldn't ruin the Province, their answer to me was “You can't feed your family off of a beautiful view!”
