Published March 14, 2005
The rising sun bathes the eastern half of Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula with light, casting long shadows in the west. The shadows highlight the plume of ash that continues to rise from the Klyuchevskaya Volcano.

Its most recent activity began in mid-January 2005, and has not abated.
