ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The photo was taken in December 2020, on Mount Etna. The most frequent eruptive activity is Strombolian explosions. I captured some stronger ones, which created a great show, with the pyroplastic material rolling down the snow-capped walls of the New Southeast Crater.

AUTHOR
Dario began to be passionate about the camera since he was a boy, but with Etna, he created a fantastic bond, stimulating even more his passion for nature, and for photography, with which he expresses his creativity, telling and trying to convey their emotions. Since 1997 with his photos he has documented the most important eruptive activities of Etna, including the paroxysm of 1999 and the lateral eruption of 2002 that destroyed the tourist resort of Piano Provenzana including the cabin used as a shop gallery that had opened in July 2001. Since then he has continued to document moments of historical and scientific interest with photos and videos, but also poetic and unpublished aspects.
He traveled with his camera in the south and north-east of Brazil and in the Amazon, Venezuela, Mexico, Israel-Palestine, Myanmar, Thailand, Greece, Holland, South Africa, Ethiopia.
