First, there was an unusual smell. Then there was a loud bang. But what
appeared to the eye was the most amazing of all. While waiting near midnight to
see a possible eruption of Volcán de Fuego (Volcano of Fire) in Guatemala last
month, a ready camera captured this extraordinary image. Lava is seen running
down the side of the volcano, while ash rises up, and glowing magma bubbles
explode out of the caldera. Lights near the town of Escuintla can be seen in
the background, one of several nearby towns that have witnessed several
spectacular eruptions previously. High above, seemingly tranquil by comparison,
are familiar stars from the night sky. Although the Volcán de Fuego usually
undergoes low-level activity, when the next spectacular eruption will occur is
unknown.
