Letting off steam

The volcano that's booming away has me captivated and I reckon it's certainly worth heading down south to try and catch a look. This is my ambition for the coming week so watch this space. I was in this part of Chile and Argentina in February, when it was hot, and I can attest to the region's beauty. Hopefully I'll manage to post some of my own photos of this incredible natural spectacle but in the meantime I've compiled some photo galleries from various media sources. Mother Nature is kicking arse.
