"But when a black-faced cloud the world doth threat,
In his dim mist the aspiring mountain hiding,
From earth's dark womb some gentle gust doth get,
Which blows these pitchy vapours from their biding,
Hindering their present fall by this dividing."
- #ShakespeareSunday, Rape of Lucrece

The August 2014 - February 2015 #Holuhraun #eruption of Bárðarbunga¹ in south-east central #Iceland, imaged in September 2014.

A final colour photo of the same eruption showing a huge lava plume approximately 80 metres or 260 feet tall. Its base is bright yellow and the top has cooled slightly to chunks of red rock. Rivers of lava are running from it and the smaller vent can be seen in the foreground, yellow-orange and gassy.

A close-up of the main fissure, showing a range of colours within and just outside the fissure indicating the temperature. The centre lava domes are yellow and white, around the circumference is orange and red leading to cooler brown. Clouds of dense steam and gas are escaping.

Another colour photo of the same eruption seen from the opposite side but still upwind of the fissure. More of the surrounding landscape is visible, including a second, smaller fissure beyond the main vent and a further rift on the nearside edge of the vent which has stopped effusing but is still releasing gases. In the distance is the surface of a glacier.

A colour photo of a wide split in a dark uneven surface of lava. Molten magma is erupting in a curtain from the base of the split. Streams of lava are running away from the main fissure and clouds of gas and steam are climbing towards the top right corner. A helicopter can be seen hovering very close to the eruption.
