Photograping an Active Erupting Volcano - My Top 5 Moments

Last year I had a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience a volcanic eruption up-close in a way that has rarely been possible. I visited the Geldingadalir eruption of the Fagradalsfjall volcanic system in Iceland over 44 times. During those visits, I spent many hours photographing and documenting the eruption. In this video, I share my 5 most memorable moments and show some of my work surrounding this incredible volcanic event. Chapters 0:00 Intro 1:12 Photographing an Eruption 2:47 1.

The past years, he dedicated his photography to the Central Highlands & volcanic eruptions. Most recently, he received international attention for his work at the Fagradalsfjall volcano. I have a book out on the eruption in Geldingadalir (Iceland), which is called New Earth. “New Earth – A Photographic Journey Of The Geldingadalir Eruption” is a uniquely personal, photography- and experience-focused book covering the recent volcanic eruption in Geldingadalir from the first until the last day it was active.
