Vik, Iceland.

Four days after I took this photo there were press report of how the Katla volcano nearby was giving indications of a big eruption which could spew an ash cloud dwarfing the 2010 eruption that cost airlines $2 billion. Luckily nothing has happened yet and I was reading the report safe at home back in the UK.

The CBS news report has a remarkably similar photo which got my attention considering I had spend 6 days very near to this place. http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2011/10/13/501364/main20119947.shtml
