Theme: Volcanic Peaks That Still Smoke Above Their Cities
Each of these volcanoes looms directly over a modern city, a daily reminder that dramatic scenery and simmering danger often share the same address. Mount Merapi vents ash over Yogyakarta's outskirts, while Pacaya rumbles within sight of Antigua Guatemala's colonial rooftops.
