    I'm studying rocks that erupted under the ice when Iceland was completely covered with an ice sheet. I'm looking in particular at the origin of fault-like structures that developed when the piles of subglacial volcanic debris collapsed as the eruption proceeded. No one's ever studied these structures before, so it's interesting and exciting (at least to a geologist!) and full of puzzles.

    I love the first picture, looks like giants on such a small world. Iceland looks like a beautiful place to visit. The more photos that you post, the more certain that I need to put Iceland on my "bucket list". BTW dinner looks good.
