Villarrica volcano as seen at night from Pucón, Chile (photo by Ivan Alvarado).

Saw this posted over at reddit. Incredible picture… enjoy

TIL that my hometown has a volcano. :smiling_imp:

That is an amazing photo, thanks.

How many lumens? :stuck_out_tongue:

It looks like a warm white big and floody flashlight pointed at the sky.
Very nice picture indeed.
I wouldn’t have imagined a volcano was emitting so much light upward.

Wow!! Thanks for sharing this… :beer:

Cameras lie , just look how many stars there are compared to how many your eyes can see, just like Astro photography shows more than eyes can see.

^ Agreed, plus all the stars are streaks.

Beautiful photo though.

I agree. It is amazing what cameras are able to do these days. Quite astonishing.

I’m thinking a lot of what we are seeing in that picture is ‘volcanic ash’… not stars.

Typical …High CRI Crappy Tint! :smiley:

Looks like it’s powered by the new experimental
Cree 70000000000000000000000000000.1 XHHHHPPPPP
in the 2800K tint :slight_smile:

power courtesy from wayyyy below by Satan himself maybe ?
Cool as Hell

wow, I don’t even own a real camera. nice shot.

Would be amazing to live in a place where you can see that many stars and own a hi power telescope…

Is that one of the Magellanic Clouds in the star field behind the volcano’s glare?

Plenty of spill. I was going to say more like 2000K… a very warm tint. Lots of thermal conductivity going on there.

:beer:

What’d you expect for 100cri?!

Interested. Put me down for two please.

Of course somebody’s gonna complain it doesn’t come in 5000K…

It’s hard to tell , we’re not use to seeing that many stars , if it is the Magellanic Cloud then you should be able to see both.
