"During the fifth eruption at Sundhnúksgígar, last May, I captured this unique, almost hypnotic lava flow. It turns out this was an even more fleeting moment than usual because since then, the area where I recorded this has been buried twice over with new lava. It’s wild to think how much and how fast this area has been terraformed in less than a year. If you would have asked me, or asked anyone really, what they would have expected to happen there I don’t think anyone would’ve guessed we would be experiencing our 7th eruption in less than a year time.

The area at the Sundhnúksgígar eruptions is restricted. As a member of press, I have permission to access it."

"One of my favorite captures this year is this top-down clip of lava flowing over snow. I managed to capture this moment during the February eruption at Sundhnúkagígar this year. This clip sparked a lot of debate in the comments section, as people questioned whether it was real because there’s no visible steam when the lava crosses over the snow. I must admit, it also baffled me when I saw it in person, so I decided to seek explanations.

What happens is likely the result of the Leidenfrost effect. The lava is so incredibly hot that it melts the top part of the snow, which then creates a vapour layer that shields the bottom part from the heat temporarily. Similarly to what you can observe when water droplets scoot around on a hot metal plate. The lava moves so fast that it actually manages to cover the snow before it can melt. As a result, it is all trapped underneath the fresh lava. Extremely fascinating if you ask me.

📷 This was captured using the DJI Mavic 3 Pro using the 7x telephoto lens."
