The Planet-Cloud
There are some places on the Earth which can be easily compared with aliens one. Unearthly landscapes due to their singularity are frequently called lunar or Martian. One of such incredible places is our Kamchatka. Different planets exist in our Universe: desert planets, iron and even ocean-planet and on a photo you can observe another classical example of a diversity of our World - Planet-Cloud. |

Mirror for giants
Nature always gives us fairy minutes of silence and appeasement. When the sun set over the horizon and the wind subsided, snowy white volcanoes topes began to shine in a small lake as in a mirror.

The eruption of Klyuchevskaya sopka
There is a rumor that you can watch forever on two things: fire and water, but when it comes to exploding lava fountains, - it is sempiternity multiplied to infinity.
Грохот из кратера, напоминающий отдалённые раскаты грома и огромные раскалённые бомбы летящие кувырком по склону вулкана. Вулкан то затихет, то снова начинает работать с новой силой. Каждый выброс неповторим по своей красоте и мощи. |

The cloud
The gargantuan lenticular cloud had hanged over volcano Kamen. Notably, this natural UFO has diameter of about ten kilometers. To imagine it`s size, try to visualize city with a population of about two hundred thousand people.
Kamen is a part of a group of innate volcanoes located in Klyuchevskoy park, Kamchatka. |

Planet’s fiery breathe
Klyuchevskoy volcano is the most famous volcano of the Kamchatka Peninsula. It is not for nothing occupies first positions among the natural attractions of Kamchatka.
Кроме того, что вулкан является самым большим действующим в Евразии, Ключевской также можно считать одним из самых красивых, а его соседство с не менее величественными исполинами создают уникальную композицию "неземных" ландшафтов Ключевского природного парка. |

И всё-таки природа - самый лучший художник. Словно кистью она создаёт волшебную атмосферу из облаков над самыми высокими вулканами Камчатки.

Smoke is ejected from Klyuchevskoy volcano crater but nevertheless it doesn't prevent volcano from dressing up in elegant sombrero. Kluchevskaya Sopka and volcano The Kamen are the highest Kamchatka`s volcanoes. Shaped wide clouds, flat and circular, and appearing to be hovering above mountaintops, they manage to resemble UFOs. They are actually known as 'lenticular' clouds and are formed by airflow flowing in waves over mountain peaks.

The fire-breathing Giant
This is how planet’s fiery breathe looks like. When volcano wakes up, lava’s streams and their blazing glow are visible even hundreds of kilometers away. Observation of this phenomena in a relative proximity is absolutely breathtaking.

Тёплые лучи солнца зажигают краски осенней Камчатки.
У подножия вулкана Острый Толбачик проходит граница между бардовой тундрой и желтеющей тайгой, а ландшафт долины разрезают чёрные воды реки Студёной. |

Kamchatka’s dreams
Under the cover of a moonlight night, whereas the sky is strewn with the thousands of stars, majestic volcanoes peacefully sleep in this wonderland. Clouds, like blankets, wrapped up the titans to protect their sleep.
