After a month of doing relatively little, just a few hours ago Agung sprung to life again, reminding us all this eruption is far from over.

This picture was taken today by a member of our community who saw the explosion.

Better start watching that live feed again folks!

You never know what magical powerful moment you might catch.

Personally I'm hoping to see a bit of lava before we leave Bali in a week... assuming the airports are open!

Right... bed time now. It's been a long old day!

I leave you with a film I made last month of all the best volcano eruption moments I could find 🗻

We hope there won't be any delays in your travels next week. We think Mount Agung is just 'venting' out some 'steam' ;)
But in all seriousness, it is a wonder to watch nature take its own course and reminds us that this earth is alive even though it is being slowly destroyed by us.

It certainly is a wonder. Even more so when you can smell the sulphur in the air 40K from the volcano. How little we humans are when compared to the might of this playground upon which we walk... with our heavy soled shoes, leaving our dirty mark wherever we go.

Thankfully a new age is upon us now. And I've not worn shoes for over 3 years! haha :)

Times are changing and my children will grow up knowing a very different world to the one I was introduced to as a child in London.

All the best to you :)

Funny... I just noticed your names as I clicked 'Follow'. My totally awesome sister is called Rebecca but I call her Becca. Sam & Becca! Small world.

Absolutely gorgeous sight. I still have vivid memories of watching lava flow into the sea in Hawaii. I think it's one of the most amazing Earth phenomenon's I'll ever witness! Glad you shared this Sam.

Really hope to see that lava!!! The people here have had plenty of warning to clear the area :)

Sam if you do get lucky enough to catch lava, be sure to share it ASAP! Have a good night.

For sure I will my friend! No question about that!

i like the post . -

Wow...this is exiting!

It sure is. Love a good bit of volcano action. Even if we are 40K from it!

Stay safe, a pic isn't worth your life. Although I'd think seeing lava close up would be a serious rush!!

Not to worry. The worst thing that will happen is that I never see my drone again!

Nooooooooo, fare well drone, you have served me well. LOL If you do get some footage I would love to see.

Hey man, saw your Steemit Logo animations. Could I use the 'Motherboard' one? Thanks, be safe and prepared.

Help yourself my friend. It's all yours :)

Thanks :-) is there somewhere I would be able to download it from? Uncompressed if possible.

You have six days before this link expires.

There is a full rez 1080 version but no sound.

The 720 version has sound.

That's the best I could do.

Hope this helps.

That's amazing man, thank you so much :)

oh no, really?! we got a flight to Bali end of January. hope all is good then!

I'm sure it will be fine. I think it's just steam currently. There has been a shed load of rain filling up the crater.

Personally I'm hoping to see a bit of lava before we leave Bali in a week... assuming the airports are open!

You hope to see a bit of lava. From an active volcano. Would that be such a magical moment.

You, sir, just got 20% cooler on my list.

haha! Only 20%? 😜

I did spot a little bit of lava in some drone footage the day before it erupted.

Yo Sam! I really liked this video. You struck a very FINE level of grace in this one. I'm really growing to enjoy drone cinematography overall. Aside from killing people (and all of that negative stuff) I am realizing how much of a technological REVOLUTION these drones are bringing about. For us filmmakers they are bringing in a "new age" of filmmaking...
