There's a strong smell of sulphur everywhere at Nishiyama, which is consistent
with the minor activity which continues even 5 years after the latest real eruption.
I assume they get natural acid rain here.

This picture is in the Hokkaido gallery as well as the Image by chance gallery.

Today's other picture

is in the Images less lucky gallery.

I also started uploading a few more
old diving photos, such is this Porcelain crab

from my Komodo trip in 2003. More later.
