Tungurahua Erupts
Volcano Tungurahua erupted spectacularly last year. Pictured above , molten rock so hot it glows visibly pours down the sides of the 5,000-meter high Tungurahua , while a cloud of dark ash is seen being ejected toward the left. Wispy white clouds flow around the lava-lit peak , while a star-lit sky shines in the distance. The above image was captured last year as ash fell around the adventurous photographer. Located in Ecuador , Tungurahua has become active roughly every 90 years since for the last 1,300 years. Volcano Tungurahua has started erupting again this year and continues erupting at a lower level even today.
