Heart of Flame
Seeing this volcano explode from up close, especially through a telephoto lens at night, really brings the action close to you. First comes the bright showers reaching for the sky before arching down. And just before they hit the ground, the pressure wave from the explosion reaches you. And as it passes by, you also get to watch the burning embers of rock roll down the steep slopes of the volcano.
This was one of the brightest captures from that night of shooting the volcano, and the energy from the explosion is still seared in my mind. See this large in my 2025 calendar available at this link.
