Volcanoes 2019

I have always loved the visuals of volcanoes. I once managed to be in a small plane inside the crater of Mt Saint Helens.

And I spent a lot of time in the Volcano Park on the Big Island of Hawaii before the last eruptions made it impossible to get close some of the craters. I also foolishly walked between very narrow runs of hot lava at night as it poured into the sea from Pu’o’u (It was a long way from the volcano and a long time ago.)

A relatively short time after Saint Helen’s eruption, Ctein and I took this shared image above as part of our collaboration project.

I’ve collected some amazing volcano photographs from 2019: The Year in Volcanic Activity from Alan Taylor’s In Focus
