Craters and Sulphur Plumes
Crater No. 1

Crater No. 2

Crater No. 3

Sulphur Deposits on Crater Rim. In the distance you can see our cruise ship has cranked up it's engines and is expelling smoke from it's chimneys.

The Hot Hole.

There is a fissure in the crater rim here it goes down quite deep and the heat from the magma chamber under the island is welling up through this gap. If you put your hand down this hole you can feel the heat rising up.
Sulphur Clouds

This stank of rotten eggs. Phew.
