This morning I woke up really early at 4 AM. I took these pictures at 6 AM which apparently was 7 hours after Mt Semeru spew some ashes and hot clouds. This picture was taken from the hotels 4th floor and from the window. I wish I could get better viewing spot but that's all I could do and I was using about 20x zoom in the picture. I checked the news and the current status of the mountain is once again on alert. It looks surreal, terrifying yet breathtaking at the same time.
