We were ready to go photographing when the Geldingadalsgos volcanic eruption started. In this video we hike to Geldingadalur walley on the first day of the eruption. This was a unforgettable adventure. It is unreal to stand close to a volcano.

Hello Gudmann & Gyda,
I so appreciate the fine work that you put into this wonderful video! Of all the videos that I have seen this is the best. Your beautiful photos and the steady, well filmed video and editing are top rate. No silly music or stupid soundbites, but good information and authentic appreciation for this once in lifetime moment. I will not be able to visit this event, and your film really takes me there in a classy way. Thank you very much! Be safe.
You're very welcome! We try to do our best Blake.
We travelled to Iceland specifically to experience a volcanic country last year , we had the most wonderful guide an a level geology teacher nick, who was so passionate about Iceland and the activity you are experiencing in your vid.we a year too early . Thank you for your exquisite shots and vids. It has made my evening watching this most beautiful eruption. Wishing you well from Wales and the Brecon Beacons x
Looking back this is an exceptionally Great Video!! Thanks for sharing! 9 eruptions 🌋 later!
The most impressive thing about standing on the top of an active volcano, near the cone, even if not in effusion, is the dull rumble that is heard, a powerful rumbling that enters the body. I was unable to sleep at night after the visit. I kept feeling the dull vibration inside my brain ...
You were there? how did you feel?
@@hansfrankfurter2903 I felt good, apart from the very cold even with a sweater (It was July).
But that was a long time ago, I was 27, in full health. We went without a guide. With my friends we took the cable car up to about 2-2500 meters. Then a not very difficult walking path. The craters were two, one smaller, but very close. I am not able to remember if they were the 2 top cones or the side ones. On the edge we looked out with great caution, to see in depth but useless. The terrain is very dangerous, light and crumbling, you can slide without suitable shoes. Many small dark stones. The Martian landscape is more reassuring. A few fumaroles but no lava in sight. But there was a loud and powerful rumbling coming from the bowels of the volcano, the noise enters your body as vibrations.
@@hansfrankfurter2903 Oh sorry, I forgot the important thing! I'm talking about Etna, in Sicily! Hello
What an exciting place to live. Not for me, but beautiful to see.
*EL AMEN~SELA'|H| !!!!!!*
That look so kool...we want to see the time of the huge explosion
The world is jealous! We would love to see this in person. Enjoy it. 😊
But it’s dangerous
@@MatthewHensley8304 Have you never heard of the White Island incident? 😬
Meh
Not really on the internet is fine for me , don't you remember the victims in New Zealand
Thank. You.
What an opportunity. To be able to get so close to such a spectacular event... I'm a little jealous.
Not jealous, just keep hoping for your continued safety to all you who visit to see. It is a spectacular sight!
I am a little also 🤣
this is amazing, they are so lucky ❤️
Me too, I'd love to see a volcano erupting
Thanks for sharing... Nice greetings from Austria
Wanna see Short kick ass Drone videos of this thing, look for (Bjorn Steinbekk - A guy with a drone) on YT.
He flew the drone right over the cone as lava spews out, the video cuts short so i guess it did get hit with lava.
he has 4 videos from 20sec - 4 minutes long
It is so nice to hear you talking about and showing us this wonderful event! I'll probably never get to see this in person, so this will do! Virtual trip to your amazing country! THANK YOU!
Thank you for watching!
@Peter Isaac maybe only your girlfriend gives a damn?
But then I don’t know your girlfriend.
I just hope Sam and Frodo will be safe tonight.
Hahahaha!!
And that was no helicopter, but a ringwraith ;)
That would be New Zealand your thinking of
But I do hope they are ok nonetheless
I can feel your passion for the natural wonder you are witness too. It is truly beautiful what this blue earth can do.
Lucky, lucky, lucky you 2 to be able to get that close. Thanks for sharing.
Great to hear about Icelanders' good attitude towards the volcanoes. Not everyone can boast a spectacle on this scale.
One of the best videos I have seen on photographing a volcano! Wonderful photography! Thank you for sharing so much.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for sharing this with all of us!
What a beautiful place you have to call home - Iceland is definitely someplace I must visit.
I fell in ❤️ at first sight of this cute volcano even I am only viewing this online through live streaming since the second of its eruption. Beautiful photography so much thanks for taking us all to get closer to this Volcano 🌋 🙏
The best video I have seen about the eruption. Excellent work. 🔥👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
Only the Icelanders would call an eruption a tourist trap. I would definitely come. But I would need a helicopter. Your pictures are wonderful and your care for visitors safety is commendable. I have met a few Icelanders and have found them to be great fun. I’m sure a credit to your outstanding “little” island.
Describing this as an opportunity for the tourist industry was one of my first thoughts when the scale of the eruption became obvious. A large enough eruption to awe and inspire, and yet small enough to be relatively safe to approach.
Oh, and your comment about Icelanders is spot-on.
This is amazing volcanic show!! I dont mind walking 5 hours for this!! amazing video!
Mother Nature at her best👍🏼
Thank You both for sharing your amazing experience with us!
Many thanks for letting the rest of the world in on this spectacular and beautiful event! I've always been interested in volcanoes.. When I was seven or eight years old I wrote a paper on Paricutin. of Mexico. But this one is like a precious gem!
I grew up in Florida and have lived in Hawaii for thirty years, so the conditions you face in these videos are beyond my experience (except the volcano itself). Great video.
Thanks for sharing this amazing video. My wife and I travelled south of this location, via Grindavik, going back to the airport in 2017-good memories!
Amazing ! Like always, thank you very much 👏 merci beaucoup 😊
Thank you for sharing the complete experience of the approach and revelation of the eruption. It is as close to being there as possible for us in the US. Your still photos are a testament to your photographic art. Pakka fer fyrir
Thank you! This was a great experience.
Thanks Gudmann & Gyda for the best video I've seen of this eruption so far. I share your excitement and enthusiam and would love to see this. Unfortunately, we are a bit far a away in Northern England to just nip over, but if we were in Iceland, we would be there.
Visiting Iceland is on my bucket list. Great video and thank you so much for sharing this. We don't really get volcano's where I live in the United States. Only tornados. Beautiful. It's amazing how close people can get to the volcano. Again thanks for sharing this and what your thoughts are on this. I'm sure being there must have been amazing. New fan. Thanks for speaking English so many more of us can understand. much appreciated.
Thank you so much for sharing this spectacular event. I long to be there!
me too!!!!
Amazing that I can watch an Icelandic volcano from my home in Florida, and with a couple of clicks, watch the volcano in Hawaii. Both live.
Incredible stuff guys. Wish I could be there.
We have been to Iceland only once and I regret we did not visit when I was younger and healthier. There are so many beautiful places, some require hiking or riding Icelandic ponies.
I would love to see this volcano and if the new trail is just 7km i could make it.thanks for a taste of the beauty.
Wow! Amazing photography! Right you are, what a view!
Thanks a lot!
Real nice job there.........Hey mom, we went for a stroll today, and look what popped up :)
Increíble la experiencia que se debe vivir estando tan cerca del volcán. Gracias por dejarnos vivir con ustedes esta maravillosa obra de la naturaleza. un abrazo!!
if we're worried about anything, it would be that if the eruption would end too soon for those who still haven't seen it with their bare ayes.
Although there are talks about it possibly lasting for months.. even years. That is truly exciting.
Maybe we'll get to see a whole new mountain form right before our eyes. How amazing would that be. :=)
Thank you for your very good and professional cut and arranged video with fantastic fotos and interesting information! Great!
A wonderful video and fantastic photos. Thanks for posting.
Totally AWESOME EXPERIENCE for you and all of Iceland!! I know personally the wonder & fascination to visit it closely. Lived in Honolulu Hawaii, on Ohau years ago for during the Big Islands Kileaua Volcano activity that reached the ocean. Several visits with family and colleague's and once during their total eclipse in the late 1990s, also was safe enough to hile to edge of the main crater, now all collapsed with 2018 eruption. Officials let us get as close as the heat would allow, incrediable experience!
One visit hike with work colleagues to where the lava was entering the ocean, I & a buddy climb down the 4 meter high bluffs to the newest black sand beach with glowing lava chunks floating in the waves! A once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Incredible to have these live video feeds from your volcano which is just absolutely awesome itself cheers from the United States! eruptions.
Twenty hours of daylight to explore Iceland this time of year!
Wow! Thank you so much for doing this and sharing it. My health could not take such a hike but thanks to you generously sharing I can get a taste of this event.
I came back to this video after more than 100 days, this volcano and the valley now has been covered with lava , what an amazing thing to watch day after day .
Great video guys, looking forward to any future updates. 🌋❤️
Gosh I really am so jealous. I've been a photographer for ELEVEN years. And since I was a kid i always thought Volcanoes are amazing, also I love playing with colour so the whole thing is just perfect really. Does anyone have any RAW files they're willing to share? I just want to play with them I'm not gonna try and sell them or anything...
Nice to see a real person talking.
Hello from the Poconos in Pa.
It would be fun to bring a tent and do overnight at a safe distance. Then not walking path back in the dark.
great video thanks for sharing stay safe on that hike. This could just last a few weeks but i suspect there will now be others in the area given past history
I know this volcano been expected to errup since years, too bad I can not visit Iceland at this moment :(
Good to watch this 4 months later. Thank you for this. :)
Wow you guys have taken some spectacular pics, love to see more.
Because of physical limitations, that's a hike I could never do. Thanks so much for sharing such a wonderful spectacle, it really is quite mesmerizing! It's great that you can get so close to it and yes, you certainly don't want to melt your camera! Thanks again and good night, from Lockport, New York, USA!
Thank you. Wonderful footage. 🙏🏻💫💗
Thank your sharing this experience and also your perspective, 👍🇦🇺
My friend Maria from Iceland sent me pictures of the eruption last night, I was terrified, worried about their safety, but the fact that she was so calm about it, made me relax as well.
She´s fine. No worries.
OMG, they will all die ! Nope. People who can eat rotten shark meat never die.
Exactly! You hit the point... :)
Once in a lifetime to get so close to it.
Thank you for sharing. Greetings from Denmark
i cant describe how jealous i am .. great content!
Great stuff as always... congratulations getting a viral video... it's really going to help you wonderful channel grow!
Thank you Óli, this has been really helpful in growing the channel.
Use that Heat somehow and make it to energy u will be rich.
The volcano view is getting better. Stay safe.
What a view ❤ Fantastic love from 🇵🇭
Thank you for sharing! Wishing you happiness and good health from Madison, Wisconsin (USA).
Amazing, thank you both for showing us the beauty the news channels never capture, also with the 'real life' bit too is extra special.. I was in Iceland a few years back and hope to go back as soon as i can, no place like it, madly infused with the elements that makes you alive. Much love from the UK
Glad you enjoyed it!
I was a couple of years ago in your land, it is more than beautiful, marvelous. Also amazing photos and videos, thank you for sharing this to the rest of the world!
Ring of fire Iceland 🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸🇮🇸😱😱😱😱
Thank you for sharing. I will never have a chance to experience this up close but because of folks like you if feels closer. Michael. United States.
You are so welcome
You've shown us some magnificent still photographs! Will you print them on paper?
PS: Oh! There's a book!
Yes, and our website is www.photographingiceland.is where it´s possible to buy prints.
Thankyou so much! Wonderful video!
yeah this has to be one of the most unique looking volcanoes I have seen. its literally the birth of a new volcano. I wonder how big it will eventually get, or what shape it will take with such fluid lava.
Thank you for this wonderful video ! I'm amazed that people can be so close. Very interesting and full of information 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wonderful. Please, can I get your permission to use these footages in a video I am making for my YT channel? Thanks.
Thank you!!! What beautiful footage of a gorgeous volcano!
Wonderful photography 👏💝
Thank you for your awesome photography. If you decide to sell Prints send me a message.
chk desc
Thank you Andy. We often sell prints from our websites... gyda.is - gudmann.is and ggart.is
i wouldn't turn my back to that thing
It’s a morbid question I know, but I wonder how many have been injured by this event? I’m thinking people getting too close and being hit by a lavabomb
There was one minor accident yesterday. A person got hit by a off-road ATV. Not serious.
Iceland is definitely on my bucket list. Thanks for this video.
Thank you so much, fantastic! The shots you got were superb 👋 from Scotland.
Glad you enjoyed it!
thankyou for making that long brutal hike, so you could share your experience> wish i could be there> bless bless
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful. Do you have respirators in case the wind shifts and the toxic fumes come your way? You can get headlamps to hike in the darkness too. Great job with the photography. Thanks for sharing your experience
Thank you! We did not have respirators. It´s a matter of constantly watching the wind. The more the wind the better and safer. We had good headlamps and did need them on the way home.
Thanks for the spectacular images! Is it well known that this thing cannot explode and kill all of the visitors there?
Thank you from Sonora, California!
Good back drops for some heavy metal death bands.

Don't mess with earth
This is amazing, thank you so much 🤩
Well done! Thank you.
I like your English accent 😂😁😅😆😄
;-) Thanks!
Whooooouw amazing video!
Thanks for the videos and great shots!!!!!!
Was anyone else wishing they could be at the front of the Lava flow to feel the lava evaporating the crap out of the moist ground? I love this feeling. It's so satisfying for me when I dry my coffee percolator on a really hot stove and all the steam whooshes out of it.
Thank you, that was a warming social video.
Our pleasure!
