Etna eruption photos: Nov. 2006

Since mid-October 2006, Etna has been in a spectacular phase of eruptions involving strong strombolian activity from the SE crater, lava flows from several vents, located at 2800 m SE of SE crater in the wall of Valle del Bove as well as from vents at fractures W of SE crater on the slope of Bocca Nuova crater, on the S fissure of SE crater and - most recently - in the saddle between Voragine and SE crater.
Part of the VolcanoDiscovery team (Tom, Marco and Karen) visited Etna from 1-8 November. Here's a selection of Tom's photographs.

Volcano Specials
Volcano Special Tours: We organize tours to particularly active volcanoes and during ongoing eruptions for extended observation time from various viewpoints. These trips, exclusively for very small groups, are often announced only at short notice and require fast travel and flexibility. Each trip is accompanied by a volcanologist from our team. Examples include: Kilauea (Hawai'i), Colima (Mexico), Krakatau and many others.
Merapi
Merapi volcano photos: One of the most active and most dangerous volcanoes of Indonesia: Merapi meaning "the one who makes fire", is a feared but also venerated holy mountain looming over the city of Yogyakarta, capital of Central Java.
