ON148--Hidden Volcano, Waxing Moon

You can just see the peak of the the fog-shrouded volcano straight underneath (and a bit right of) the waxing moon.  The light from setting sun is making some interesting highlights and shadows within the fog blanket as well as showing off some unusual geological features along the coastline.


This photo is one of a series that I took during an expedition to a large chain of volcanic islands that separate the Sea of Okhotsk from the northwestern Pacific Ocean. Please see the corresponding Gallery for detailed information on the archipelago and to see the other photos from the series.
