Beautiful Photos of Volcano in Iceland





Just a few of the amazing photos posted on flickr & else where of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. Having flown into Reykjavík many times, I am drawn to this eerily beautiful country. These photos represent the magnitude & beauty of nature at work. I have a friend that was to leave for Paris last night. I do not know if her flight got off or not. Many flights through out Europe have been canceled dew to the heavy cloud of volcanic ash. Nature is now in control. We must bow to her forces with awe & admiration even though she is wrecking havoc with our plans. It is also possible to see this phenomenon from outer space. NASA has a gallery of remarkable satellite pictures of Iceland’s volcanic eruption on their website if you are interested.
