Við Gunnuhver
Steam bleeds into a cloudy sky at the geothermal field at Gunnuhver in Reykjanes in SW-Iceland. Gunnuhver is an exception to other geothermal areas in Iceland because the groundwater here is 100% seawater. The name Gunnuhver comes from a woman called Gudrún, nicknamed Gunna, who died and became a terrifying ghost. She was lured to the area by one Eiríkur Magnússon, a famous priest at Vogsósar, who then managed to direct her into the boiling spring, which put an end to her troublesome post-life carreer.
