Painting on lava: two people in a hug.
I always checked the eruptions status of the Fragadasfjall volcano and after 10 days I arrived in the south of the island.
Luckily the volcano started erupting during the afternoon and I ran there as fast as I could.
Here I share one of my best experience in a life, so closed to the lava I couldn’t believe.
At the top of the view point, I started taking pictures and my drone flew on the lava. After few minutes I noticed something unique, actually I call it painting made of lava and this picture remind me two people in a hug, maybe comforting each other before something they couldn’t control, as it happened to many during the Pompei eruption in Italy.
My photo contains an awful moment but full of love.
Shoot with Nikon.

entry description
I have waited years for this trip in Iceland, and finally I did my 3.700 km around the island in August, 2021.I always checked the eruptions status of the Fragadasfjall volcano and after 10 days I arrived in the south of the island.
Luckily the volcano started erupting during the afternoon and I ran there as fast as I could.
Here I share one of my best experience in a life, so closed to the lava I couldn’t believe.
At the top of the view point, I started taking pictures and my drone flew on the lava. After few minutes I noticed something unique, actually I call it painting made of lava and this picture remind me two people in a hug, maybe comforting each other before something they couldn’t control, as it happened to many during the Pompei eruption in Italy.
My photo contains an awful moment but full of love.
