Description

Chichontepec volcano, also known as San Vicente in Salvador

It is a paired stratovolcano hence name "two breasts".(Chichontepec.....Nahuat for "Two Breasts".)

The eruptive history of San Vicente volcano is not well known.
There is no definitive record of historical eruptive activity.
The last significant eruption occurred more than 1,700 years ago.
It has a very long history of repeated, and sometimes violent, eruptions,
and at least once a large section of the volcano collapsed in a massive landslide.

An earthquake in 2001 generated landslides causing deaths, but reports of an eruption proved inaccurate.

Great view and perspective.
Maybe have the background mountain top slightly off center in the composition.

Did you use a polarizer filter?

Beautiful photo Carlos. The small clouds add a beautiful and needed element. The textured green foreground adds a nice balance.

Great work!

Peaceful photo. Great perspective. Small clouds around the top looks amazing. Exact exposition at difficult conditions. Centered composition works really good here.

Do you understand/speak Nahuatl?

No Yves....I don't speak Nahuat....I wish I would....it is a beautiful language.
Very few people speak it, only the few true native american still alive in El Salvador.......But there are some projects to rescue the language. I may in the future learn some.

Beautiful work. Love the varying shades of blue in the mountains.. This photo has a certain elegance to it, which I love.
(I've actually just finished an assignment on Pompeii and Mount Vesuvius, so it's quite cool that I logged onto GFX today and, lo and behold, a volcano! Haha.)
