Surtsey (Icelandic: "Surtur's island") is a volcanic island off the southern coast of Iceland. At N 20.3° W it is also the southernmost point of Iceland.
It was formed in a volcanic eruption which began 130 meters below sea level, and reached the surface on 14 November 1963.

Wonderful photograph! Great textures and layers. What a splendid addition to your photo-album! You know, I can just about remember the fuss being made when Surtsey erupted. Ok, I was only 5 at the time, but I definitely remember something! :)

Vá hvað þetta er æðislegt ! Aldrei ímyndað mér hvernig þessi eyja sem almenningur má ekki heimsækja lítur út í raun og veru.
