Not the usual sort of thing for this forum, but it's definitely PJ, if not unposed people shots:

I gotta say, sometimes just being there is 99% of the work.
If not now, when?

    Volcano porn indeed. And in this case, the watchword is definitely "f8 and be there!"rolleyes1.gifrolleyes1.gif

    What I'd give to get a crack at this.. and Iceland is barely 1,000 miles away. Damn ash clouds :(

    Those images are truly stunning, the colours are just unreal. *jealous*

    Wow. Those are fabulous shots.

    Not sure if I'd be willing to get that close to a volcano to get the shots, but if I were there when it happened, I'd certainly have my camera snapping constantly.

    I particularly love the shots that catch the lightning from the ash cloud.
