This print captures the awe-inspiring beauty of the crater with an active lava lake at Mount Nyiragongo, located in the Virunga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The image showcases a mesmerizing scene that highlights the natural wonders found within this African travel destination. The horizontal composition allows for an immersive experience as one's eyes are drawn towards the vibrant colors and intense heat emanating from the molten lava. The volcanic terrain surrounding the crater creates an extreme and dramatic landscape, showcasing nature's raw power. From this high-angle view, we witness steam rising from the burning volcanic rock, creating an ethereal atmosphere that adds to its mystique. With no people present in sight, it emphasizes both its untouched beauty and potential danger. Mount Nyiragongo stands tall as a natural landmark amidst picturesque scenery. Its significance as a UNESCO World Heritage Site further underscores its importance for conservation efforts and preservation of our planet's topography. Michael Runkel/robertharding has masterfully captured this extraordinary moment in time through his lens.
