EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a breathtaking moment of raw power in nature. The image showcases the dangerous volcanic activity at Erta Ale volcano, located in the Danakil Depression of Ethiopia. Taken on February 7,2008, it reveals an upward surge of lava forcefully breaking through the thick crust of a lava lake. The explosive eruption is depicted with vibrant splatters and splashes of orange lava that burst outwards from the molten core. The close-up shot allows viewers to witness the intense heat and fiery energy emanating from this natural phenomenon. The cracked surface surrounding the eruption serves as a testament to the immense force behind this volcanic event. Richard Roscoe's expert photography skillfully captures every detail, highlighting both the fluidity and thickness of these glowing globs of molten rock. The solidified basalt formations around the lake further emphasize nature's ability to create awe-inspiring geological wonders. This stunning image serves as a reminder of Earth's volatile beauty and its ever-changing landscapes shaped by powerful forces beyond human control. With no people present in sight, it emphasizes our smallness in comparison to such grand displays of natural power.
