Early Flight
A storm was brewing and this would be the only chance to bring in surface mail and essentials before the strong winds took hold of the entire area. It was already gusting strongly. Watching the pilots complete this landing on a small airstrip surrounded by the water of Pollurinn was tense, to say the least.

Red Sky At Night...
September 2014, and the Holuhraun eruption of Bárðarbunga is well under way. We stopped for the night at a farm to the south of Vatnajökull glacier, and the eruption plume filled the sky.
At 18:45 when the sun set, the afterglow caused by volcanic ejecta - oxides of sulphur and thin clouds of tiny sulphuric acid droplets lofted into the stratosphere - yielded lurid but beautiful colours.
