And as we are already in the Kamchatka Peninsula, here some more pics, captured during one of the
numerous
eruptions of the Klyuchevskaya Sopka volcano by Dementievskiy

"Klyuchevskaya Sopka (Ключевская сопка) is a stratovolcano which is at 4,750 meters the highest mountain on the Kamchatka Peninsula of Russia and the highest active volcano of Eurasia. Its steep, symmetrical cone towers about 100 kilometres (60 mi) from the Bering Sea. The volcano is part of the natural UNESCO World Heritage Site Volvanoes of Kamchatka.
Klyuchevskaya's first recorded eruption occurred in 1697, and it has been almost continuously active ever since, as have many of its neighboring volcanoes.
Klyuchevskaya Sopka is considered sacred by some indigenous peoples, being viewed by them as the location at which the world was created. Other volcanoes in the region are seen with similar spiritual significance, but Klyuchevskaya Sopka is the most sacred of these. It is said that when the god Volkov created the world, this was the point at which he held it, and so it remains unfinished, unsealed, thus the volcanic activity.
On October 15th, 2012, the volcano had a weak eruption that stopped the following day. Also a weak thermal eruption occurred on November 29, 2012, then it stopped again, since its neighboring volcanoes are erupting more actively and continuously, taking a major load off of Klyuchevskaya Sopka."(source:wikipedia)
