The lava solidifies in the surrounding landscape after running down the volcano's rock face. FAGRADALSFJALL, ICELAND: WITNESS the volcano that?s been erupting for a WEEK and could continue to for YEARS ? after lying dormant for SIX MILLENNIA. In the breath-taking footage, molten lava shot several foot into the air above the volcano?s crater before cascading down and illuminating the rock face with an orange glow. As the lava traversed down, it began to mix with the black molten rock eventually spreading into the surrounding rocky landscape. Photographer Joseph Hall (32) from London, UK, and known online as Joe Shutter, witnessed the incredible volcanic eruption in Fagradalsfjall, Iceland. Joe was positioned just 150-foot away as the molten lava ran down the volcano?s rock face. He captured the event using his DJI Phantom 4 PRO camera. Over the last year, Fagradalsfjall has been hit by two earthquakes and in March 2021 alone, 40,000 earth tremors were detected in the area. The volcano erupted on March 19, 2021, and has shown no signs of slowing down. This marks the first time the volcano has erupted in 6,000 years and it could continue for many years due to its low-profile ?shield? structure. This means the volcano is both low and wide. / Joe Shutter
