@Just Icelandic • Gylfi: I love the thermal imaging videos and your explanation. We are so lucky to live in a time when we can "see" what's under our feet. I also love your truly artistic shots of the geyser. You really succeeded in showing us the beauty of your island. Thanks!
i have been taking (LSA) plane lessons, about a month ago me and my instructor flew from outside Reykjavik to selfoss and on the way back from selfoss we saw a new thermal vent or a new area that wasn't smoking last time we were there and my instructor took a video of it while i flew the plane, it was probably about 1.5-2.5 km or so south of the main road if you are curious. now thinking about it, it might have been some of the first signs that the area was changing
Thank you Gylfi...your thermal drone shots are a very good way of keeping track of the area of heat spread as time goes on...I love the geyser shots...they are spectacular... All the best...from Scotland 😃🌠
TY my friend! Awesome video, interesting perspective when thermal/visual footage is blended. Without a doubt the increase in activity generally is making for interesting times, and footage. Your travels are followed with interest and anticipation.
Sending you best regards from the UK ive been watchin a lot of the videos and just wanted to take the time to say THANK YOU again for ALL of the videos.
3 a.m.... good morning Gylfi, as always, fascinating insights into the changes in Iceland. It's also so interesting because I can see every bump in the ground, every depression or rocky ridge. If I took a drone shot of my home country, everything would be much more even... boring 😉
Another Awesome video Gylfi. Thanks for all your time and patience to make these video's. Thermal imaging is interesting to see. Nice video of the geyser as well. Sending you best wishes from NZ.
Great to see a military surplus Quonset Hut still in use just next to the area you showed us! PS - in Ventura county, CA, many farmers bought and relocated these steel huts to farms. Several are still in use around Oxnard as auto repair shops.
Thanks for the geothermal update. Do you have software that can convert the drone images to a set of maps? The drone videos show the changes, but a map view could be loaded into a GIS to do a quantitative analysis of the changes. Scientists would love to have that kind of data.
3:24 Just a detail: in this image you can read a word, colder than the surroundings, that could be "hippos". To the right of this word you can see warm spots that could be one or several horses (or Icelandic ponies).
Omg the Geyser photoshoot is just beautiful !! Love all the angles !! Looking forward to more of your work !! Just love it !! Thank You for your time and information!!
thanks for the updates and video gylfi at 3:53 look in the lower left hand corner of the thermal image. you can see a spot there too i hope scientists are paying attention
Hallo Gylfi, ich schaue mir schon seit Monaten Deine Videos an und bin sehr begeistert. Vor allen Dingen von den Drohnenaufnahmen. Die Aufnahmen des Geysirs sind wirklich toll geworden.
Gylfi, thanks for an update on the geo-thermal conditions under and around the main road, its quite amazing to see the visual and then thermal image to understand more about your restless home.
Loved the horses! The roof with the writing on it amused me. Definitely the geothermal area is expanding! Oh, and that shot of the geyser erupting from above was awesome!
Your videos are great, Gylfi. I wouldn’t be surprised if the volcanologists in Iceland are using your videos to make their Prognostications regarding the threats of future eruptions. Your work is exceptional. Thank you.
Does anyone in civil defense or science (geologists) request your thermal drone videos? Seems they might be very useful to someone tracking changes and potential hazards. Thanks and take care 🙂
I'm curious - do you have to get permission to fly your drone at Geysir? I noticed when I was there about a week ago they've got a load of "no drone" signs there. When I eventually return to Iceland for a proper photography trip, I'm considering taking a drone with me (although I need a new one cos my last one broke! :( ).
Strokkur looking beautiful there. If you go, say hello to Geysir for me. He's not as active as he once was but a few years ago I had the privilege to have my toes soaked when he decided to say hello just as I walked up :)
There are no changes in the Great Geysir itself unfortunately. Only in some other springs in the geysir area. (Strokkur is a little bit more powerful, Blesi became a perpetual spouter again with jets to 1m, Konungshver is bubbling again).
If I remember correctly from my trip in 2018 the Geysir area was a no-drone area. On the other hand there is footage from there. So maybe a permit is required ?
The road embankment is very thick and the road administration drilled holes trough it and placed steel pipes there to keep the steam from reaching the surface, and it worked to keep the road safe, at lest still....but it's up to 100c beside the road embankment.
Your drone shots of Geysir are truly extraordinary, Gylfi. I really enjoyed seeing the changes along the road, too. Has there been more rain or snow this year than usual? In most geothermal areas, much of the water actually comes from the sky, but is heated by the high underground heat flow.
Thank you for the incredible drone coverage. I was wondering was there a building of some kind built over that geyser? The square outline around the edge looks like humans made it.
Interesting. In a country where geysers/volcanoes could pop up just about anywhere, the people who handle civil planning and engineering really earn their money!
You are literally the entire outside world's leading source of Icelandic volcanism news and data; we hear about the geysers, we look to you first. When Americans think of geysers, we think Yellowstone. Maybe that could be an angle. Hell, come on over and visit with your thermal drone, that'd be extremely informative because I've never seen thermal footage of Yellowstone.
the shot directly above the geyser was absolutely awesome !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The historical data of your thermal scans over time will help provide a wealth of data for the scientists to analyse.
Citizen science for the win.
I'm fully invested in the hot highway saga :)
Great :)
That geothermal area is getting really really interesting... Thank you.
😀 welcome
Thank you very much for your calm and well thought out videos.
Glad you like them!

You just never know what may come from it...good capture
Thanks for the geothermal update! And we get another video in the next few days? I'm stoked.
Working on it :)
Fascinating stuff. Your cameras bring it right out of the screen. Cheers.
Enjoy :)
Spectacular overhead geyser footage!!!!!
Enjoy :)
You have such a nice voice, very calming. Thankyou for another nice video.
😊 thank you
I like the shot of the horses! having owned horses in the past I thought it was really cool.
Boy you're really living the high life with all your new drones
Thank you, Gylfi!
Enjoy 🤗

You are always welcome :)
Well, that is one way to keep snow off the road 🙂
And it's cheap :)
Cool! Or hot! 😉
The thermal footage of the Icelandic horses was great too.
Looking forward to the next video. 👍♥️

Amazing shots of the geyser. Love your work G. 🙌
Thank you so much 😀
I'm on a roll, happening to catch your videos so early!
Enjoy 🤗
Morning from Australia 🇦🇺...thank you Again 😊
Enjoy :)
Excellent work, and analysis
Thank you kindly!
@@JustIcelandic You remind me very much of a favorite Science teacher from long ago... 🙂
I always look forward to your videos Gylfi - there's a fascination in watching these gradual changes. Thankyou once again :)
Enjoy :)
I find thermal images fascinating. Thank-you!
Glad you enjoyed it
That warmth in the ground has spread a lot I remember your first thermal film of that area thank you for these updates
Always welcome :)
Thank you 🤗🍀
Always welcome 🤗

Always so much happening on your amazing island. Wish I'd visited more often when I was younger and fitter. 😊

I love your thermal image videos. Keep 'em coming!
Thanks, will do!
Absolutely beautiful colours. I look forward to seeing your winter shots.
Many thanks!
Thank you Gylfi,always glad to watch your videos,interesting development on the hot highway ,safe travels !
Thank you!
Endnu en god og flot video fra Island. Mange tak.
Thanks for watching :)

Good evening Gylfi!
Good evening :)
Hello everyone from New York State
Greetings from Iceland :)
Omg the Geyser photoshoot is just beautiful !! Love all the angles !! Looking forward to more of your work !! Just love it !! Thank You for your time and information!!
thanks for the updates and video gylfi
at 3:53 look in the lower left hand corner of the thermal image. you can see a spot there too
i hope scientists are paying attention
Thank you, Gylfi. I've been anticipating more news on those thermal hotspots; they certainly seem to have grown in size since the last update.
Hallo Gylfi, ich schaue mir schon seit Monaten Deine Videos an und bin sehr begeistert. Vor allen Dingen von den Drohnenaufnahmen. Die Aufnahmen des Geysirs sind wirklich toll geworden.
awesome update Gylfi and yes those hot areas on the side of highway 1 is expanding for sure :)))) best regards from Denmark
Alltid roligt att se ditt lilla ö i havet Gylfi Tack gör allt ditt jobb.
Hälsning från norra Västerbotten Sverige
Wow, you've gone up to a totally different level to the rest, congratulations & thanks!!
Thanks! 😃
Greetings to Iceland from Germany 😊
Greetings to Germany :)
Thank you for this update. Clearly things continue to change there by, and under the road.
Always welcome :)
Is the upcoming video about that erea where you found those new fumaroles/steamholes along the side of the track?
It's by Trölladyngja volcano near the place where eruption no3 took place in August last year.
Gylfi, thanks for an update on the geo-thermal conditions under and around the main road, its quite amazing to see the visual and then thermal image to understand more about your restless home.
Glad you enjoyed it
Loved the horses! The roof with the writing on it amused me. Definitely the geothermal area is expanding! Oh, and that shot of the geyser erupting from above was awesome!
We think of geothermal areas as a constant, but they're not as you get small variations in the heat flow powering these systems.
Best Regards
Greetings to you from Iceland :)
Saell Gylfi minn! Thu ert idhinn vidh kolann adh venju. Takk fyrir frjettaskotidh, beztu kvedhjur, Billi.
Takk fyrir komina Billi minn :)
Beautiful and informative, as always! Thanks, Gylfi :)
Thanks so much!
Thank you for the update on Highway No.1 , it’s a curious thing to watch…
Yes it it developing into mini series :)
Thank you for taking us with you on the droneflight. Very interesting. As always. Greetings from Netherlands
Many thanks!
Hi Gylfi,
Great thermal footage. Hope to hear somewhere in the future how and why it’s heating up.
Stay safe.
More soon :)
Thanks once again for another video. I found this really interesting & informative. Best wishes from 🇬🇧👍🏽
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your videos are great, Gylfi. I wouldn’t be surprised if the volcanologists in Iceland are using your videos to make their
Prognostications regarding the threats of future eruptions. Your work is exceptional. Thank you.
Thank you again Gylfi ❤
No problem 😊
Simply spectacular! (Especially the aerial footage of the hot water spring, geyser). 😊
Many thanks!
Great photos and comment . Very interesting with the thermal camera. Thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
Love this Gylfi👍
😊
Does anyone in civil defense or science (geologists) request your thermal drone videos? Seems they might be very useful to someone tracking changes and potential hazards. Thanks and take care 🙂
I still say someone could open a roadside rye bread bakery with all of that heat and serve it with that great Icelandic butter.
Yes it's about time 😀
Mamma bakað stundum rúgbrauð ekki langt frá gömlu kísilyðjynni og þar voru lika kartöflugarðar , góðir tímar í Mývatnssveit @@JustIcelandic
These videos with the thermal drone are very interesting, thanks! I loved the thermal horses in between. 😉
More to come!
I'm glad you got back down to the Hot Highway with the thermal drone, I suspect the area may need closer watching.
I'm curious - do you have to get permission to fly your drone at Geysir? I noticed when I was there about a week ago they've got a load of "no drone" signs there. When I eventually return to Iceland for a proper photography trip, I'm considering taking a drone with me (although I need a new one cos my last one broke! :( ).
It’s fascinating how the thermal drone is picking up the changes around highway 1. Loved watching geysir when in Iceland, a truly amazing spectacle
It really is an amazing camera :)
That Highway is so hot. 😏
Thanks for the update.
Great filming of the Geyser area.
Thanks for watching!
5.00 - wow!
very nice location when we visited.
Thanks for visiting
👍😁😳🤩🍀Thank you.
Thank you too!

Yes i would like to see Geysir wake up :)
Aloha from Makaha....
Interesting. I can't quite work out which road this would be on a map.
I left a google map link in the video description :)
Flottar myndir! 😍
Looks like they'll need to reroute it around that spot to avoid any more disruptions
Do you use an app like Litchi or so to define flight paths so you can compare several flights during a certain time span more easily?
Interesting. 😊❤
Glad you think so!
If I remember correctly from my trip in 2018 the Geysir area was a no-drone area. On the other hand there is footage from there. So maybe a permit is required ?
Looks like they my eventully have to move that hiway or its going to melt lol.
How hot is the area around the road actually getting? Could you feel it if you touch the ground? Will it keep snow melted off the road?
The road embankment is very thick and the road administration drilled holes trough it and placed steel pipes there to keep the steam from reaching the surface, and it worked to keep the road safe, at lest still....but it's up to 100c beside the road embankment.
@@JustIcelandic WOW! I seriously did not expect that! 😮
Your drone shots of Geysir are truly extraordinary, Gylfi. I really enjoyed seeing the changes along the road, too. Has there been more rain or snow this year than usual? In most geothermal areas, much of the water actually comes from the sky, but is heated by the high underground heat flow.
5:30 I noticed this almost perfect rectangular shape around the geyser and was wondering if someone knows what it is.
I can't say, but it looks manmade
05:30 - Looks like a square structure at the mouth of the geysir. Manmade?
I can't say, but it looks so..
💙💛
Always welcome 🤗
Hi, can you tell me the location of this area?
can this be the spot for the next eruption?
No but the could mess up a tourist hot spot, make it dangerous
Shall that road that is heating up turn into a geyser eventually, I would like to suggest it to be named Gylfi :)
I support that idea :)
Thank you for the incredible drone coverage. I was wondering was there a building of some kind built over that geyser? The square outline around the edge looks like humans made it.
Hopefully they close the road before motorists start leaving melted sections of tyre rubber on the road.
Title of this show is missing an a in steming.
Fixed, thanks for letting me know :)

When Americans think of geysers, we think Yellowstone. Maybe that could be an angle. Hell, come on over and visit with your thermal drone, that'd be extremely informative because I've never seen thermal footage of Yellowstone.
I wish the earth under my foot was warm....I'm in England and I have to put the gas heating on....
Is a eruption coming
Not around there....
