This brought back so many incredible memories from my own visit and I can only agree it's a highlight of a landscape photograpy career! We must have been there only a few days apart. Good to see I'm not the only one who melts drones 😅 - incredible photos as always! :D

Thanks so much Mads, glad you were able to catch it as well! It was hard to capture just how spectacular it was in person. I felt like even though I was happy with my photographic results, they still didn't do justice to the whole experience. Yeah, I was surprised I didn't catch you or Albert out there! But it was quite the crowd at times haha

@@MichaelShainblum yes absolutely, catching the size and from a low angle was really hard. It seems they had it a bit easier last year. I'm quite content with my final photo with two people in front where I managed to perspective compress the photo. I aimed to get one with myself, but despite going back and forward three times in the darkness I just couldn't line myself up between the volcano and camera 🤦♂️ I'd love to come back to CA and it would be great fun to go shoot together 🙏

Stunning images Micheal, I was lucky enough to witness the previous eruption in August 2021 with my daughter on the last night of our Iceland trip. As you say it’s tricky capturing crisp images due to the heat, smoke and brightness. I was a complete novice at the time but managed a few good images, one of which has literally just made the final 50 in a photographic competition back home in the UK. It was just getting dusk at 23.35pm and the eruption and lava lit up the clouds above with incredible colour. I am very proud of the image and feel extremely privileged to have witnessed such a wonder of nature. Possibly a once in a lifetime moment and one that will stay with me forever 🌋

I think the heat bubbling the air actually gives a really interesting effect; it looks like the background is being viewed through a clean sheet of ice. Not the type of atmospheric separation one sees very often. Amazing photos overall.
