The night before our trip we stayed at Castelmola, 30 km distance from Mount Etna.
When it gets dark you can see a stream of lava going down.
Wow, amazing!

Wonderful photos mate! A great emotion to visit the largest active volcano in Europe, every time we see that on TV talk about its eruption, my partner and I always say that we must go there sooner or later together, even if she has already been there once time, while I not. Great post!

Hey @tonyz thanks to you, the quality of your Vulcano images is astounding! Haroun Tazieff was one of the fathers of the 70s vulcanology. Precursor of implementing new technologies, sensors and others from then, but he had this thing added to his knowledge and excellence to rarely be wrong in alarming when eruptions were imminent, we were young but he left some things onto us!

The color of the soil proves the existence of a volcano in the place! I remember one place in the Philippines with this color of the soil.
And there are a number of hot springs there. It's wonderful!

Very nice trip to the "active volcano" mountain! It's really amazing to see the stream of lava going down among the darkness. The mountain is awesome and the huge white clouds are really wonderful. The view is picturesque with gorgeous wildflowers. It seems that you had special experience.... Thanks so much for sharing. ;)
