Given its name and stereotypical depiction it\u2019s somewhat surprising to learn that the small country named after ice is home to no less than 30 active volcanic systems. You\u2019ll remember the eruption of the massive Gr\u00edmsv\u00f6tn volcano just last year that spewed some 120 million tons of ash in the first 48 hours and snarled air traffic for days. Of his photographs Ermolaev says:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Iceland is a wonderful country; I would even say that it is a true paradise for all the photo shooting-lovers. But what has become a real discovery for me is the bird\u2019s eye view of the rivers flowing along the black volcanic sand.  It is an inexpressible combination of colors, lines, and patterns. The photo represents the mouth of the river falling into the ocean. [&#8230;] A little bit upstream there is a yellow-colored brook flowing into the river, but yellow currents fail to mix with the main water flow.  One can estimate the scale judging by the car tracks that are clearly seen on the black sand. This is just a river, just a volcano, just our planet.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>You can see much more of his work over on <a href=\"http:\/\/500px.com\/andreabe\">500px<\/a>.
