Great photography you just keep on producing excellent images ❤

[@Devinjak]

Holy smokes! What gorgeous footage!

[@queeflandbrown]

Sometimes it's strange to think about how every piece of earth we stand on was once created in some way, shape, or form by volcanic activity. But then you look at a place like Iceland, and you just get it. ❤❤

I hope so too. The conditions there can change quickly.

It's a long walk, but tjeeze, it' s sensational to experience I think.

So beautiful & so deadly. Amazing video! Thank you for sharing! So glad to see you wearing gas masks!👍 Be safe! ❤️

[@ThorarinnJonsson]

Frábært video að vanda, og mikill heiður að fá að birtast í því ;)

[@GudmannAndGyda]

Gaman að hitta ykkur þarna. Eins og Gyða spáði reyndist sólarupprásin sturluð. :-)

[@bartjes2509]

Nice, hope it is still on Wednesday evening, the first moment I was able to book flights... How long did you hike single way ?

[@GudmannAndGyda]

One way is about 8,5 km and two and a half hour walk. Take lots of water with you. Everything is dry up there.

[@bartjes2509]

@@GudmannAndGyda Thanks. I've been reading so much information already including the water warning, websites like safetravel visitreykjanes and vedur websites for instance. I also have a mask similar to yours that I will actually use (I didn't use it at the 2021 eruption 😃). I can recommend everyone having plans to go there to also read all the information to avoid disappointment or trouble

[@TuomasKuusela]

Beautiful video! What gas mask filter are you using?

[@sandragostanian8878]

Few people had masks…how toxic are the fumes so that some wear and some do not? Thank you for the spectacular videos. The Lord bless you and keep you safe.

[@GudmannAndGyda]

Good question! The smoke from the burning moss is often hard to handle without a mask, but hopefully the moss will stop burning and then the conditions will be less toxic. The gas from the lava can be really dangerous if you are downwind. Rule no 1 is to have the wind to your back. Sometimes it was not possible when hiking the long distance. Then the masks helped. It is possible to go without a mask as many did, but for safety a mask is good to have.

[@JamMan6string]

I think it is important that you document the people visiting the area. This puts context to our life on this planet and our experiences. Otherwise, this is just another volcano. They've been erupting for billions of years across the cosmos. As they say, if a tree fell in the forest and nobody was there, would it make a sound?

[@GudmannAndGyda]

Correct. We find it important to see the people in the landscape. It is a big part of the experience.

[@MrMortadeloyfilemon]

Absolutely. And I have to say, I was there, witnessing an eruption for the first time, and no amount of knowledge of expectations can prepare you for the feeling of seeing it up close and from the top of a hill. Life changing :)

[@noniekayokay3166]

When we were there last year, they told us it's dangerous to walk in the lava rock field especially where the moss grows because of hidden pockets where the lava created small holes or caves in the ground. How did you walk around there safely? I wanted to do it so bad but I was scolded for trying it.

[@taraelizabethdensley9475]

Spectacular video, glad you had masks, i'd be worried about toxic gasses

[@GudmannAndGyda]

The wind can help to keep the gas away, but a mask is a must if you have to walk through a gas area. The biggest danger comes when the wind is calm or in no wind conditions.

[@billmumford5photography]

Wind forward 400 million years, add a bit of techtonic plate shifting, a few ice ages and 4000 years of human interference it will look just like England's Lake District :-)

[@eygloaradottir4044]

those are properly equipped people! Where do you buy the gas masks? A lot of animal life will be lost during this eruption due to the fires and fumes.

[@GudmannAndGyda]

The masks can be found in some hardware stores. The birdlife there will be affected, but fortunately the area is big.

[@patrickmcelligott5646]

Surtr!

[@alenalen4338]

Wonderful, unfortunately we only left Iceland a few days earlier 🥲

[@GudmannAndGyda]

Next time!
