First set of photos from the camera from Iceland trip. Also first Mastodon post. Shapes and colours of Sólheimajökull glacier. This was definitely one of the highlights, our guide was really informative and explained a lot about how the local volcanoes (mostly Hekla but also the more recently active Eyjafjallajökull) are seen in the glacial landscape.

Comet C/2022 E3 is looking beautifully odd as it swings by the Sun for the first time in 50,000 years. It will slide between the Big & Little Dippers late this month, then approach Mars on Feb 10 (bring binoculars!).
