  1. Poisonous

    Under a cloud of volcanic gases with the eruption behind us, we were looking out to sea.

    The vog had passed across Vatnajökull glacier on its way from the Holuhraun eruption of Bárðarbunga and had cooled, most of the steam had condensed and the gases - mainly SO₂ CO₂ and H₂S - had separated. The lighter sulphurous gases can be seen above while the heavier ones formed a layer over the water.

  6. September versus March

    Two photos taken from roughly the same place on the the road crossing Dyrhólaós, a 4.8 km (3 mi) wide estuary near Vik í Mýrdal. The extensive mudflats are an important breeding ground for migratory birds.

    Due to the shallow depth, the area often freezes quite early in the season. By the end of winter - in about March - the frozen mud and ice are iron hard.
