How you ever been to Indonesia? When I picture Indonesia, images of lush tropical rain forests come to mind … but not volcanoes – although I realize that area is volcanic. The Exploring series continues with another stunning time lapse with wonderful music, so sit back and enjoy.

Mt. Batur in Bali, is a spectacular live volcano with a lake in a small range close to the coast. When I visited Bali years ago I ate lunch at a restaurant overlooking. It was an incredible day, fabulous view: http://www.balimadusari.com/restaurant/buffet.php

I have been to Indonesia, but never been close to a volcano, they have quite a few of them.
Stunning video: music and photo. Would love to know more about the track. Wonderful piece, just my type of music .. soft and dramatic. Nice to have you back!

I’ve never been to Indonesia, but Sara worked there for several years following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami. Lovely video, Frank. Happy unpacking!

Never been but I’ve heard it’s amazing. Any place with volcanoes has to be, I’d think!

Yes I have been to Indonesia, and there was a volcano more or less in the centre of Bali. We had lunch overlooking Mount Batur, which had smoke issuing from it. 🙂

Wow!!! That was amazing! Thank you Frank. The closest I have got to one is on Santorini. The Indonesian ones look awesome from all accounts.

Madhu,
Standing beside the flowing lava on Hawaii’s big island was interesting, other than that, I haven’t had much exposure to active volcanoes. It would be interesting to see one (from a cruise ship) spewing lava at night

The time-lapse photography is both beautiful and instructive. Excellent.
Indonesia sits on the ring of fire at the north edge of the Australian tectonic plate, floating on the hot magma of the Earth’s crust. How strange is it that this phenomenon was not scientifically understood until only a half century ago?
