"For more than 800 years, the volcanic system on Iceland’s Reykjanes Peninsula
sat dormant. That is, until March 2021, when a fissure vent appeared south of
Fagradalsfjall mountain. A throng of scientists, photographers, and tourists
descended on the area to capture the long-awaited eruption, with the first
event continuing for six months, followed by a second—and very similar one—that
ran for less than three weeks in August 2022.
Two days ago, a new eruption began spewing dramatic currents of lava in an area
north of Fagradalsfjall, near Litli-Hrútur. Drone pilot Isak Finnbogaso
captured stunning footage of the remarkable landscape as it churned molten
earth to the surface. You can see more of his footage of Iceland on YouTube and
Instagram."
