RED SMOKE AT NIGHT, VOLCANO SPOTTERS DELIGHT

With the vivid red smoke billowing into the sky amid the misty sand dunes, these are the blissful views provided at the break of dawn at a volcano. The spectacular pictures were captured at sunrise and sunset of Mount Bromo in Indonesia by landscape photographer Helminadia Jabur. It is known for its breath-taking views at first light and it did not fail to disappoint when the 36-year-old visited the volcano, which is one of the most visited tourist attractions in East Java. Helminadia said: ‘The volcano is noted for its spectacular sunrises, and majestic views all the way to Semeru volcano which is located further behind it, so ever since I saw some images of the volcano, I just could not help myself to visit the area and capture it.
