Iceland's "Strokkur" - the most active geothermal hot spring in the world



This is a picture I recently took of Strokkur (Icelandic for "churn"). It is a natural and geothermal hot spring fountain geyser situated beside the Hvita River in Iceland. It is the most active hot spring in the world, erupting about every 4-8 minutes. It blows 15 - 20 m high, with the highest recorded at 40m. No special effects were used on this image.
