4th -5th September 2014.
Me, my father, my cousin and Lára Ómarsdóttir news reporter flew to the highlands of Iceland with a tent to see the volcano eruption in twilight. The trip was amazing as we were the first to see a new fissure open in the ground two kilometers from the main fissure. We spent the night at Sauðárflugvöllur, high in the highlands and woke up at 4:30 in the morning as the temperature was only at 0 deg Celcius.
We had to remove some ice from the wings before we took off in the morning fog. The plane is a Jodel D-140 TF-ULF and the cameras I used was Canon 60D and GoPro 2 and 3. The song is by my friend Jónas Haraldsson.
The photographs are by Haukur Snorrason. haukur@snorrason.is.

newtboysays...fixed.
The combined destructive/creative forces of nature can really produce some retina shattering beauty.
I've never seen anything nearly as gorgeous as a rift volcano in full eruption.
13 more points and I'll definitely give this *quality
