Photographer’s Note
Un volcan pas tres touristique compare a son voisin le celebre Bromo, et frequente a 90% par des francais depuis que notre Nicolas Hulot y est alle faire un tour de bateau sur le lac d'acide.
----------------------------------------------------
The volcanic cone of Ijen dominates the landscape at the eastern end of Java. Crater of Ijen is filled by a spectacular turquoise blue lake, its surface streaked in wind-blown patterns of yellow sulphur. Kawah Ijen is the world's largest highly acidic lake and is the site of a labor-intensive sulfur mining operation in which sulfur-laden baskets are hand-carried from the crater floor.

Hallo Julien!
What a sight - really like from devil's kitchen. The interesting light here adds a lot to the scenery and makes it even more mysterious, especially this spot on the green-blue water. A worth-showing and worth-seeing picture! Working there must be exhausting and unhealthful ...
Greetings from cold and rainy Germany!

Salut Julien,
C'est magnifique et la composition est parfaitement équilibrée entre fumerolles lac bleu et rocher du cratère plus sombres, belle présentation.
