Spectacular pictures. I didn't know the name of the volcano and thought that you bashed the keyboard on your head until I saw the link!
Some great shots showing just how angry mother nature can be, even in a relatively minor eruption.

Wow. They are amazing. Will any science dude here care to explain why there is red lightning pls?
The photos are great, I want some of them as desktop wallpapers. I dont think I will use number 10 as that guys jumper is horrible
That one's me favourite.... love the lightning in the eruption plume
EDIT: Sim, the lightning is caused by the bits of glass and ash and all the other stuff in the plume rubbing together like mad, creating static electricity - exactly the same process as used in dual component (toner & developer) laser printers. The bits rub against each other and become charged (Triboelectrification) and discharge to earth in the form of huuuuge arcs, or lightning![]()

So basically, what we see in that pic is how laser printers work?
Wrong, I'm sure - but its a nice thought![]()
