Summary

edit
Description
English: The Reykjanes Peninsula in Iceland is mostly a barren waste of lava fields. The steam on the left comes from the geothermal power station at Svartsengi. Surplus mineral rich and hot water from the plant fills up the Blue Lagoon, a tourist bathing resort.
Nederlands: Het schiereiland Reykjanes in IJsland bestaat grotendeels uit lavavelden, vrijwel zonder vegetatie. De stoompluimen (links) zijn afkomstig van de geothermische energiecentrale Svartsengi. Overtollig heet water van de centrale wordt gebruikt voor het nabijgelegen bad "Blue Lagoon", een toeristische trekpleister.
