WW - Taal Volcano
Photos of Taal Volcano [taken by my husband]
The volcano has erupted violently several times, causing loss of life in the populated areas surrounding the lake, the current death toll standing at around 5,000 - 6,000. Because of its proximity to populated areas and eruptive history, the volcano has been designated a Decade Volcano worthy of close study to prevent future natural disasters. It was thought to be named as “a volcano inside a volcano” because many believed that the lake that circles the volcano was once a crater or mouth of a volcano.
They are absolutely breathtaking. I’m ecstatic to have them printed and get some custom picture framing.
nice pictures… i haven’t been that close to taal!
