Stunning Electric-Blue Flames Erupt From Volcanoes



Paris based photographer Olivier Grunewald has been documenting the Kawah Ijen volcano in Indonesia, where he observed dazzling electric blue fire can often be seen streaming down the mountain at night. Blue glow is unusual for a volcano on the island of Java. The blue glow is actually the light from the combustion of sulfuric gases, and some gases condense into liquid sulfur, which continues to burn as it flows down the slopes giving the feeling of lave flowing. I have never seen this much sulfur flowing at a volcano. Blue volcanic fire was described in antiquity in Italy on the south slope of Mount Vesuvius and on the island of Vulcano.Blue flames may also be observed at the base of the plume of erupting volcanoes, when ash explosions occur. I did not use any filters to capture his images of the blue fire. The burning happens day and night, but it's visible only in darkness.Source: Charismatic Planet

Stunning Image of Lave Lake at Mount Nyiragongo

This is truly an amazing photo of Lava lake at Mount Nyiragongo, an active stratovolcano inside Virunga National Park, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. This deadly volcano has erupted at least 34 times since 1882, forming various-sized lava lakes that have created, drained, crater, and reformed. This beautiful snap is taken in 2011 shows the hottest iteration of the mountain’s lava lake. It was formed of 2002 eruption. Lava lakes are large volumes of molten lava, regularly basaltic, contained in a volcanic vent, crater, or broad depression. The term is used to describe both lava lakes that are wholly or partly molten and those that are solidified occasionally referred to as frozen lava lakes.

“Cuban Trogon” World’s Most Fascinating Colorful Bird

I always believe nature is full of amazing color, and when I see colorful birds, it’s really amazing how beautiful our motherland is. The Cuban Trogon is one of most beautiful species of bird belongs to Trogonidae family. It is also called Tocoror (Priotelus Temnurus), actually endemic to the Caribbean island of Cuba. It is Cuba national bird, and its habitats are dry forests, moist forests, and heavily degraded former forest. It is well spread known to be Cuban Trogon, while in Spanish it is called Tocororo or Tocoloro. The name is actually derived from its repeated call, toco-toco-tocoro-tocoro. Its scientific name is Priotelus temnurus which is very infrequently used in referring to this bird. The colorful Cuban Trogon with a green back, blue crown, red belly and beak, and white throat and chest. Interestingly these colors mimic the colors of the Cuban flag, and that’s why it is selected to be national bird of Cuba. This bird has a long fluffy tail, truly unique amongst trogons. The bird is between ten and eleven inches from beak to tail. When these birds travel, they prefer in pairs flight, creating a heavy noise because of their rough, graceless flying technique. This is very common bird and can be seeing all over the island of Cuba. This bird is rarely seeing on the Isle of Youth Guajaba, Romano, and Sabinal. This bird prefers wet and dry forests of all altitudes and likes to be in the shade as opposed to the sun. The Cuban Trogon nests in already created crevices in trees, primarily abandoned wood pecker holes. The Cuban Trogon feeds on flowers, fruits, and insects. Unlike most birds, it is proficient of hovering while eating. Source: Charismatic Planet
