| Taal Lake and Volcano @ mirandablue |
No actual fire in this photo, but this volcano is one of the active volcanoes in the Philippines, and part of the Pacific ring of fire. About 50 kilometers south of Manila, Taal Volcano is an island in Lake Taal, situated within a caldera formed by an earlier, very powerful eruption. The last major eruption was in 1977 but alert status level was raised to 2 in June this year which indicates the volcano is undergoing magmatic intrusion which could eventually lead to an eruption. As the crater lake temperature increased, with hot ground and steam emissions, the area was declared off-limits to the public and high-risk area for residents.
