Villarrica Volcano in Chile. The Villarrica volcano is the most dangerous volcano in Chile and one of the most active in America. Today it is on Yellow alert. In December, while the volcano was showing a lot of activity, I decided to go to the area and stay there until something happened. After more than 10 nights sleeping in my vehicle near the volcano, I was able to capture this incredible photograph of a lenticular cloud illuminated by the crater's lava pit. All the discomforts I went through down the volcano had a good result, nature rewarded my wait and effort.
