from space showing Koryaksky Volcano on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula (click to enlarge.) This is a true-color image showing an ash and steam plume being blown to the northeast towards the Bering Sea.
Personal note: I will be visiting the port of Petropovlovsk next summer as a lecturer/guide on a Zegrahm expedition and hope to witness/photograph several gurgling volcanoes during the five week voyage.
