lazarus Posted October 5, 2021 Author Share Posted October 5, 2021 "Yesterday afternoon we suddenly decided to fly to La Palma for one day for this "once in a lifetime" event. Two hours later we were on the plane and four hours after that we witnessed this infernal rumble that simply cannot be compared to anything else. The videos and pictures don't really capture it. The experience will remain."

Gives the viewer a much better idea of the area effected by the eruption. Link below is to that imagery. Move the cursor to the bottom of the page for a panel of pictures/drone flights taken on different days. https://arcg.is/0GGbCu 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
