The volcano to the left of the sun is Hekla, one of the most active volcanoes in Iceland, fortunately it didn't erupt (so far!) while we are there. Hoping skies remain clear as this evening there is G3 (KP7) solar storm forecast to hit from the X flare earlier in the week.

Hi Mark,
Hopefully you'll get a great view if it happens tonight and some animation shots timed to UT so I can check my magnetometer against your visual record.
