Yesterday evening a volcano erupted at Grimsvotn, on Vatnajokull.
Vatnajokull,is a biggest glacier in Iceland.
It is not as big as the Volcano last year at Eyjafjallajokull.

Here you can see my video of the ash cloud .

But it has produced a big ash cloud .

I was east of Reykjavik,and saw the ash cloud from a few hundred kilometers away,and took some photos and a video clip of the ash cloud.
The volcano is about 210 kilometers form Reykjavik.
Farmers are getting there livestock and putting them inside.
National highway near the volcano is closed,due to the ash that is falling .
People are not in danger .
You can also see more photos and videos of the volcano on my blog.
