A set of beautiful photographs. Thanks.:)
Gotta agree.. they most certainly are beautiful. Thanks.
Mesmerizing! So many earthquakes and now this.
Fantastic pictures
Yes fantastic but this volcano paralyzed the whole planet, definitely it's bigger than us humans.
1. How do you pronounce the name of that volcano. I've been wondering that for days now.
2. Why is there so much lightning inside the ash plume just over the opening?
I was never very good at physics, but I think it is because very hot particles are bumping into cold air particles at a high speed, thus causing friction and creating a charge?

The ones with lightning, lava and black clouds really make it look alive. You can see why people thought they were Gods (with short tempers).
