Mt. Merapi, Sumatra 1983 # 61
Lava rubble like a lunar landscape awaited us at the volcanos top.
Unlike the well-known Mt Merapi on Java, this Mt. Marapi does not have the typical cone shape. The tip is flattened and has several crater holes from which sulfur-containing vapors emerged. Unfortunately we were surrounded by clouds and didn't have the desired view of the surroundings.
.. to be continued... ;)

The photo was taken in 1983 with my analog Nikon FE camera and 35mm slide film, and now scanned with Nikon Coolscan film scanner.
