A state of emergency has been declared in southern Iceland after another volcanic eruption on the Reykjanes Peninsula - the fourth since December.
The eruption began on Saturday evening north of the mostly evacuated town of Grindavik, according to the country's met office.
On Monday, authorities said the fishing town and nearby infrastructure were safe for now, although the volcano was still spewing lava.
Photographer Jakob Vegerfors from Reykjavik was able to take these photos of the eruption.
