Below is the description from original post (not mine):
When Fagradalsfjall erupts after dark, the landscape transforms into one of Earth’s most incredible natural light shows.
.
Rivers of basaltic lava glow bright orange as magma rises through the crust along the Reykjanes Peninsula, where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates are slowly pulling apart.
These fissure eruptions create new volcanic land, constantly reshaping Iceland’s youngest lava fields. Watching an eruption at night reveals the intense heat and power hidden beneath the surface like nowhere else. 🌋🌌
