Photos of Volcanoes
Our photos of volcanoes also include thermal areas where volcanic wonders like geysers, mud pools, and thermal lakes exist.
A volcano is a geological landform where magma, ash, and other volcanic materials are expelled from the Earth’s surface. Volcanoes are typically found along tectonic plate boundaries, where magma from the mantle rises to the surface due to movements in the Earth’s crust. There are numerous other volcanic wonders found where the Earth’s crust is relatively thin compared to other areas. These areas are typically characterized by tectonic activity and are often located near plate boundaries or hotspots.
