Seltun

Yes, yet another series of pictures that have returned from the ether, or maybe ore appropriately in this case they bubbled up from beneath the earth's crust. Gary and I visited the Seltun geothermal area in Krysuvik toward the end of our time in Iceland. It was a lovely, albeit rotten egg smelly, spot, which also served as a reminder of Iceland's precarious geothermal birth and existence. My memory is that there were some seismic activity when we were there, but I'll have to ask the boy. We really need to go back during a time when there was more than four hours of sunlight a day (although, truthfully, that was one of the great charms of that trip - it made it all seem more otherworldly).
