#Laphoto2023dujour n°138 : Le Krysuvikur-Maelifell (228 m alt), au sud du système volcanique de Krysuvik, le 1er mai 2023. Randonnée accessible via la piste 427.
The latest eruption in Iceland stopped a few days ago after 54 days of activity.
However, land rise due to magma inflow underground of the Reykjanes Peninsula continues, and experts expect a new eruption soon. As they predicted, when the first eruption occurred on the peninsula a few years ago, this activity could continue for decades.
Environmental historian Vicki Szabo and her team of archaeologists, historians, folklorists and geneticists are trying to figure out medieval Icelanders' attitudes to blue whales. Did they revere them as their protectors? Did they hunt them for food? Was it both? @hakaimagazine's Andrew Chapman reports on the work of this multi-disciplinary team, and what their findings might tell us about historical and modern whale populations.
https://www.europesays.com/1216454/ Hi ! Sorry this is not in Icelandic, I’m American-Chilean. Thank-You. Please, which building (in Reykjavík) is this, and what’s its address ? Thank-You in advance ! #iceland
During the eruptions I became addicted to the Icelandic webcams. Now the eruptions over I still look at them daily and as spring comes #Iceland, after being very grey, is starting to look very beautiful
Bière brassée au... Groenland! Trouvée complètement par hasard avant Noël dans un Vinbuðin (seule chaîne autorisée à vendre des boissons alcoolisées en Islande) et depuis j'enquête pour remettre la main dessus... Sans succès.
#Laphoto2023dujour n°132 : l'épave d'un véhicule de la Seconde Guerre Mondiale près d'une piste menant à plusieurs points de départ de randonnées vers le massif du Botnssúlur qui se dresse au fond. Photo prise le 25 mars 2023 à midi.
Mais vu que l'engin est mal éclairé, on va tricher avec une autre photo prise un an plus tard.
