There's also this view which has been online for a while: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BA-9QzIcr3c

So nice to have a live view of a volcano on my second screen while working and watch it change from day to day.

Pretty neat. Curious how hot is it this close though? How does the equipment not feel the effect? Wind keeps it cool? I wondered about how that drone guy got his flyover too.

Also, anyone can just drop a camera there and hope that no one moves it etc? Shouldn't we be able to see this camera maybe on the other feed (might be just out of view)

also if anyone wants to donate to our rescue services they can be found at https://www.rescue.is/

It's all volunteer based and non-for-profit and helps keeps sites like this eruption safe for all visitors.

The perfect soundtrack:

This could be the best volcano live stream I've ever seen. The coverage from Hawaii wasn't even close to this quality.

Looking forward to the eventual timelapse compilations. Seeing nature in fast-forward makes me feel so much in awe of how much is actually going on in the world.

here you go.

Nice view with sound. It would be nice to get some perspective of how large that is compared to a man or a car

I was there last sunday, you can see from comparing it from the other camera setup from RUV (National state Broadcast).

the main fissure is about 50m high 30-40 across currently. There's a timelapse where you can compare during daytime to people visiting the site.
