View of the Volcano

An image of a large erupting volcano.
The large brownish-gray volcano rises high above the ground, like a mountain. The sloping sides are bumpy with rocks of cooled lava. Hot red lava explodes from the crater and dark gray smoke pours out, covering the sky around the eruption.

Woah! Check out that cone-shaped volcano! It looks a lot like a mountain, right? But it also has a crater at the top where you can see smoke and lava coming out. That volcano looks HOT! Be careful!
