I'll Stick With Telephoto
This is a link that should be of interest to photographers. I hope it's permissible to provide this here. It's some incredible photographs of a lava lake at the bottom of a crater. The photographs were taken at great personal risk but are amazing.

A 'once-in-a-lifetime' experience seems to be the appropriate phrase. The excitement at being involved in that project must have been phenominal.

#9 looks doable physically or is it the angle of view that makes it look simple.
#10 if I need to wear a gas mask to sleep I'm not going.
Great images.
Re: I'll Stick With Telephoto
Excellent National Geographic quality imagery! However as awesome as these images are; there is no way that I would venture into that inferno to capture them.
Re: I'll Stick With Telephoto
Wow. That's all I can say.
