, tripod. Etna, Italy.

Poco oltre i 2.000 metri, in un versante difficile da raggiungere (come se il vulcano volesse gelosamente conservarla da sguardi indiscreti), si trova questo vero gioiello dell'Etna, una vecchia galleria di scorrimento lavico che ha dato origine a questa meravigliosa grotta. L'eruzione che ha coinvolto questo versante iniziò nel Luglio 1614 e durò per ben 10 anni. La bellezza dello scenario che si osserva lungo il cammino è commovente: lave cordate a perdita d'occhio, testimonianza di una eruzione desueta per l'Etna, contraddistinta da un magma molto fluido, come quello che si vede alle Hawaii. Può essere definito come il 'ghiacciaio' più meridionale d'Europa, infatti anche nei periodi più caldi al suo interno la temperatura non sale mai sopra i -6 °C. Questo ripreso è un particolare delle bellissime formazioni che si trovano al suo interno. [TEMA NERO per la visualizzazione] #Vulcani #Etna #Sicilia #Grotte

Thanks Marco.
Yes, I used the flash. That section of the cave was in the shade.

Nicholas, as usual your photos should be enjoyed, even in this series you've managed to put together the extremes, the strength and sweetness, heat and extreme cold, colors, life (the photograph of the volcano with the moon l 'I would have called "the birth of the Moon") and death. Compliments.
