Woooooooah! All our cars are covered in ash where I live and loads of my friends were trapped abroad! I also love the name and spelling of the Volcano; it has led to much amusement in our media!

Great photos, and really interesting article on what it takes to get them. For me, without flash and auto white balance, I'm completely lost behind a camera ;)

Here's another pretty neat shot, if anyone is interested, I just love the color the lightening came out http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap100419.html

Amazing, and a bit frightening, when you stop and think about what's going on under our feet every day...
