If you’re Boris Behncke, you can photograph strombolian eruptions and lava flows from the comforts of home. Boris lives in Tremestieri Etneo, Sicily, where he has a view of the nearby activity of Europe’s tallest volcano, Mount Etna. He’s not alone in aiming his camera to capture earth ruptures and molten rock, as you can see in this photo selection of volcanic activity, and remnants of it, from destinations worldwide.

Enjoy, and share, more photos in the Lava shots gallery and Volcano Photography group.
