Docking the fiberglass boat along the eastern rim/shore of the crater lake. Its a little windy at this side, a little quiet, and no crowd. Most of the crowds are at the north side shore and viewing deck.
On some instances that the sun came out, the colors seem to radiate around the crater.

Seeing orange on the summit? If you do, you pay good attention to details, and yes, that's the smoldering summit of Mt. Mayon, the most active volcano in the Philippines.
A few meters north of the Cagsawa Church ruins are large crosses. The faint light from the Cagsawa Park illuminated the two crosses under the shot's long exposure. In the distance is one faint light, probably from a house or a lamppost. All of these elements are overshadowed by the huge silhouette of Mayon Volcano, and its orange summit will only serve as a warning and a reminder to anyone around its slopes : that even if there's always small hope as symbolized by that light in the distance, it will always be overran when the volcano lets go of its rage. Even if you stand by the crosses, you can still be wiped out -- its like telling people to believe in God but always lock your doors at night. Have faith but always use your common sense. Having faith only, is disastrous. You've got to think. You've got to earn a living and be at peace with your God.
Again for those asking for reference, the summit if about two and a half kilometers high. This shot is about 8 kilometers from the summit. If the volcano looks this big from 8 kilometers, obviously it is huge.

To get here from wherever you are in the world, take a flight to Manila. If your airport doesn't have direct flights to Manila, you can try flying to Asia's Major hubs, you can fly to Tokyo(Japan), Singapore, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, or Taipei. Then take a flight to Manila. Once in Manila, you can take a 45 minute flight to the City of Legaspi, province of Albay. You can then take taxi or tricycles(motorbikes withe sidecars), to this place. Its about 15 minutes from the airport.

It was late afternoon in Legaspi when the nimbus clouds moved in. And scattered rainshowers are everywhere in the city. Tough luck. In times like this you just sit back and relax, nothing much you can do. One of Legaspi's favorite photogenic subject was about to be hidden by the low lying clouds too. I was on a shelter when I caught the glimpse of Mt. Mayon shortly before the clouds could totally hide it, and just before evening, when the lamp posts takes its turn. That volcano is around 10 kilometers away, yet, its partially hidden summit seems to just look down on this tall lamp posts and the rest of the city of Legaspi.

One of the toughest things I think I have ever done. We left at 3am to get to the summit in time for the sunrise. Our base camp was at 2600m and the summit is at 3700m. We estimated it to be around -5 degrees celcius in the icy wind. My fingers stopped working while I was taking these pictures. Way below in the middle of the lake you can see the very much alive Gunung Baru or new mountain which has been spilling lava into the Lake Anak Segara for the last 16 years. This trek was definitely not easy with us having to walk for approximately 10 hours a day up and down very steep slopes.

A traditional Balinese fishing boat, called a jukung, pulls up to shore after a night of fishing for mackerel. The volcano, Gunung Agung, is in the background.
On arrival at the summit of Stromboli we were met with strong winds and driving rain. I was one of the lucky few to see a weak eruption
Colima Volcanic Complex at the western end of the Mexican Volcanic Belt is the most active andesitic volcano in Mexico. The complex consists of a
northern, inactive summit cone (Nevado de Colima) and a southern, active cone (Fuego de Colima).
Colima volcano has been active for about five million years. There have been frequent historical eruptions from the summit crater. Pyroclastic flows, vertical ash columns and lava flows are characteristic of eruptions at the volcano. About 300,000 people live within 40 km of Colima, making it potentially one of the world's most dangerous volcanoes.
from the website:
A mountainous and rugged island, the highest point on Sicily is Mount Etna, an active Volcano which dominates the eastern coast at a height of 10,900 feet.
Sicily is the largest island in the Mediterranean, it is 150 miles wide and 200 miles long, situated off the toe of the Italian "boot" and separated from the mainland by the Straits of Messina.
With a population of 5 million, it is one of the most densely populated areas of Italy.
I know this is not a classicaly beautiful picture but I thought you might like to get an idea for the scale of this active volcano.
We went to the top.
Obviously, there are many extinct craters in evidence!!
Have seen this shot in many posters and cards. wanted to click this by myself. difficult part was finding the location.

Masaya is an active volcano with constant flumes of sulfuric smoke spewing from the vents in its main crater. Lava flows have not occurred in over 200 years, although explosions are fairly frequent (the most recent, in 2001, hurled 2-foot rocks as far as the visitor center, injuring one tourist and damaging several vehicles). Masaya is the largest of the two volcanoes that lie within the park. The smaller volcano is Volcan Nindiri.
New Zealand's only active marine volcano, 48 kms from the Whakatane coast, is a private reserve reached by chartered helicopter or chartered boat. White Island named by Captain Cook or Whakaari (Maori) is a stratovolcano. The crater was once mined for sulphur until an eruption killed a number of men then working on the island.

Another shot from the sunset drive around Mt Shasta. I took this shot right outside the famous lavender farm which is along the outskirts of the Mountain. We were looking for the entrypoint all over the place and couldn’t find it. By the time the sun light was coming in rather beautifully and we decided just to park by the roadside and take some nice shots. It was interesting to see the sky change from intense blue to warm pastel colors in a matter of minutes.
Thanks for visiting, have a wonderful week ahead.
I have driven up to Johnston Ridge Observatory before, but it was on a very foggy day. What a wonderful surprise to see the crater for the first time from the rim! Smoke rises from several areas around the lava dome in the center. We heard a faint crackling (like a rock slide) from the top and didn't see any rocks falling. We thought it may have been coming from the lava dome. It was a great day with spectacular views!
This was as close as I got to the Mayon Volcano during my visit to Bicol last year. On our way back from Sorsogon, the weather was very cloudy, drizzling even in some parts and I was lucky that it cleared up a bit as we were passing Albay (on the outskirts of Legazpi City).
Concepción is an active stratovolcano that along with Volcan Maderas form the island of Ometepe, on Lake Nicaragua.

Long exposure image of lava flowing into the Pacific Ocean at night on the Big Island of Hawaii (Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii).
The thing everyone really wants to see on the Big Island of Hawaii is lava flowing into the sea. The national park seems to not go out of its way to describe how: In order to see the lava flowing into the sea you need to exit Volcanoes National Park and head east on Highway 11 toward Hilo. Turn south (right) on Highway 130 and take it almost all the way to the ocean. Just before the ocean veer right onto Kaimu Chain of Craters Road and take it until you can't go any farther.
Once at the end of the road you will be in a giant parking lot. Park and keep walking further out with water and flashlights. Just before you hit the trail, you will come across a tent city in which countless merchants will rent you a bike, and a bike light, if it is getting late (cost about $25-$30 per bike). We did not rent the bikes because we headed out about the time this part of the park closed (9:00 p.m.). However, I would highly advise renting bicycles; the rates are reasonable; it's an easy trail, albeit dirt; it will cut the time out on the four-mile trail in half (eight miles round trip).
What will you find a the end of the trail? Around mile three you re-enter the park. Indeed, although they don't advertise all this, it seems to be park sanctioned. This has one major drawback, which is when you get to the end of the trail, there are barriers where you park bikes and walk the remaining 1/2 mile. Nevertheless, if you go in the late evening, you will see the lava clearly flowing into the ocean. The later you are there the clearer the flow. Even at night, with a long exposure, I was able to get some decent images (see above).
As you might imagine, there are a number of people who go out there. The later you go, the fewer people there will be, We left the viewing area at about 10:00 p.m. and there were less than five people left. Yet, given the number of people who passed us on bikes on our way out, it must be pretty busy around dusk. Remember, sunset on the Big Island in July is around 7:00 p.m. Thus, you're going to have to balance your desire to have a great view and few competitors with being able to see by the light of day. The rock vistas can be very treacherous at night; we had a few close calls and slips. This could be especially dangerous for small children. Where there is no danger is from the flowing lava. It is just too far away to pose a threat as long as you stay behind the ropes.
The ride/walk out is pretty in the late evening as lava can be seen coming down from the hills on your right. However, unless you own a 15 K Canon or Nikon telephoto lense the lava on the hill cannot be photographed effectively. Additionally, if there is any chance that you will be out on the trail after sunset, a flashlight(s) is a necessity. If you choose to walk, you should expect this to be about a three to four-hour trip. If you rent a bike, it will be significantly less.
(These directions may no longer be accurate and you should use your own good judgment; indeed, the 2018 eruption makes it likely that the preceding information is completely obsolete and should not be relied upon).
I really wanted a shot showing the glow from the volcano, with a bit of ambient light to see the landscape before it got too dark. I exposed for 75 seconds and got really lucky with there being no wind making the scene very quiet and not blurred at all. On the volcano some lights can be seen from the tour up on the rim.
Inglewood.
Like Stratford further out Inglewood was also settled after the Maori Taranaki Wars of the 1860s when land was confiscated from the rebelling Maoris. Prime Minister Julius Vogel wanted the area settled by Europeans and his assisted migration program saw the district settled by English, Prussians, Danes and Swiss. The town was established in 1873 after the forests were cleared and the railway from New Plymouth reached the burgeoning town in 1875. The town is not known for its historical buildings but in the main street you will see St Andrews Anglian Church which was built in 1922(number 106 left) and Nelson’s Bakery was built in 1928 (number 45 right), the old Shoe Store (1910) is on a corner and brightly painted (number 58 -left), and the old railway station which was built in 1876 to a standard Vogel Prime Ministership era design. It was expanded in 1891 and 1897. The town claims that is has the largest rhododendron in New Zealand. The variety behind the local War memorial is Sir Robert Peel.
Central cone and lava flows on the flank of Mount Merapi.
Known in Indonesian as Mountain of Fire, Mount Merapi is one of Indonesia's most active volcanoes.
It is listed as one of the world's Decade Volcanoes due to its high level of activity and risk posed to nearby populated areas.

Kagoshima bay, Kyushu Japan 2012 - Explore
Sakura Island 桜島 Sakura-jima is an active composite volcano (stratovolcano) and a former island (now connected to the mainland) of the same name in Kagoshima Prefecture in Kyūshū, Japan. The lava flows of the 1914 eruption caused the former island to be connected with the Osumi Peninsula.
The volcanic activity still continues, dropping large amounts of volcanic ash on the surroundings. Earlier eruptions built the white sands highlands in the region.
