Here is a shot I took in La Fortuna, Costa Rica of the Arenal volcano. Although still classed as active, the volcano hasn't erupted since 1998. I love it because it is such a perfect looking volcano shape!
This was taken just before sunset.

C&C always welcome. Thanks for viewing

Re: Volcano
Very nice image tommy. The street shows the scale of the volcano in the background. Also how the people live their everyday lives, in such close proximity, to something so dangerous.

Re: Volcano
I love the light, mood and street activity with the mountain looming in the background.
Consider cropping at the very bottom of the nearest sign to draw the viewer's eye through the street scene all the way back to the mountain. The top of the mountain can't be seen because of the clouds, so there is no need to display anything above the bottom of that sign.
