Iceland, Eyjafjallajökull

One of the most interesting things to me in this world is the destructive and unpredictable nature of the environment. Volcanoes are a perfect example. Get a sense of the power, fervor, and destructive beauty in this short time lapse video of Iceland, Eyjafjallajökull.

Enjoy!

Text from the video:

So I saw all of these mediocre pictures of that volcano in Iceland nobody can pronounce the name of, so I figured I should go and do better. But the flights to get over took forever as expected (somewhat). 4 days after leaving I finally made it, but the weather was terrible for another 4. Just before leaving it got pretty good for about a day and a half and this is what I managed to get.

Wish I had more time. I missed all the cool Lightning and the Lava of the first eruption. But I figure this will just be a trial run for another day.

I am of course accepting sponsors to send me back there for more please…!! haha
