A steaming, iridescent pool, in the Landmannalaugar area, in southern Iceland’s Fjallabak Nature Reserve, Iceland.

So extraordinary is this steaming, iridescent pool surrounded by a brutally eroded and desolate landscape that it could only be in one country: Iceland. This is the Landmannalaugar area, in southern Iceland’s  Fjallabak Nature Reserve. Established in 1979, and covering 47,000 hectares, this mountainous nature reserve has been sculpted by volcanoes and geothermic activity over millions of years, forming vivid lavas, sands, rivers and lakes. At the centre of it all is the 1,259m Torfajokull volcano.
