- jacquesm 6y agoI'd save it for the last entry. Or you might not get to work on the rest of the list.
- _verandaguy 6y agoIt really depends on the kind of volcano and the type of eruption. There are famously continuous lava flows on Big Island in Hawaii that have been going on for decades. These are technically eruptions, and they're a _very_ interesting subject for a photographer. Because they've been ongoing for so long, there are more-or-less reliable ways to get fairly close to the flows and back. You're right for more violent eruptions, like St Helens, though!
- bitL 6y agoBig Island flows have stopped though at least recently Kilauea went alive again. Pu'u'O'o that was responsible for those flows into the ocean one could walk to/on is dead though.
- yosito 6y agoI'd say this is about in the middle as far as the level of risk on my bucket list items.
