Strokkur Geyser, Iceland

Strokkur Geyser is one of the bigger geysers near the Great Geysir. It's frequent eruption (4-8 minutes) makes it a popular tourist attraction.
The English word 'geyser' came from this area, Geysir, the oldest known geyser.

My first post, which also includes a video, was also about this geyser.
