Reunion Island from 10 000 ft

in #island6 years ago (edited)

A large volcanic Island in the Indian ocean.

One of its mountains rising from a sea of clouds.

A small more recent volcanic cinder cone in the crater of an older and larger more eroded cone.

As can be seen from Google Earth the young cinder cone is quite active.

Also from GE, mini cinder cones on the sides of the active cone.

A large extinct crater in the north of the island.

Peoples houses inside the large extinct crater.

Reunion is found on Google Earth west of Madagascar close to the island of Mauritius.

Nice photos!

I love volcanos it's incredible the power. I remember this one in Iceland when many flights been canceled to Germany.

One word: Majestic

I was shocked when I saw some big time real estate business was going on inside the crater. Had to read it twice.....thanks for sharing with the community
