Kudos to Mark #124, a voice of reason in this diatribe between crackpot fundamentalists and crackpot atheists/agnostics

The power of nature is absolutely breathtaking. It has nothing to do with "god" or any such force, it's just something that happens. So chill people, and stop hating.

~Ichigo

Everything I was thinking has already been said by reasonable thinking people but it really does bother me to think that anyone on this plannet could treat this as a joke or even find fun in the fact that people and animals alike could have suffered in this awful way. I endorse fully the comments made by S.Cassidy J.Belloni C.Mcnelly & M.Cortes + many others but the remarks made by L.June does sadden when me trying to figure out her state of mind and remember Camella, you don't have to be a Bible puncher to feel sympathy for others but believing in something would certainly help you.

So cool :)

I have spent no less than 40 hours studying these pictures, they are absolutely gorgeous in appearance, and in a funny way pleasing to the eye. There is another picture that is not posted on this site you must see, it is blue/grey in color with the static lightening (green) running thru it, an awesome photo. Never before in the history of man has something so breathtaking been caught on film or by digital capture.

However, there is much more happening in all of these photos then what you have viewed thus far perhaps some of you might already know what I am referring to....you know these photos to be a Chilean Volcanic Eruption that occurred in the beginning of May 2008...That being said I now challenge anyone and everyone that reads this posting to look deeper at the photos and to discover what this event is saying to the entire world.....if your like everyone that I know, you were taught that every picture tells a story, yes? And you should have been taught that, after all it is a correct teaching. That is certainly the case here and of course why I am posting.....by the way I have never in my life written something like this and posted it on the web, but I have been compelled to do so.

Metaphorically speaking, all creation has DNA, people, plants, animals, minerals, the earth and all things above and below, including a plume of smoke and ash from an active volcano impaled with static lightening. However, DNA from such an event doesn’t stay around very long unless it is somehow captured thru the taking of samples or in this case the capture was by way of photos. We have all seen CSI or shows like it, what does that DNA Lab Tech really do? He uses a scientific process to isolate collected DNA. He then sends this DNA thru a another scientific process that when completed will provide him with a conclusionary result....what do these results look like? They will ultimately appear in a picture looking like a bunch of lines and rainbow colored sections.... these results are literally a chemical map that can be displayed for comparisons and presentations....now here is what I am suggesting, when you re-look at the photo(s), do it in small sections, just as if you were cropping portions out of it, which isn’t a bad idea to do if you have the skills and software. When you begin to look small and deep you will begin to see individual images within the photo, these images will begin to appear right before your eyes, zoom in and out if need be.

I will give you one example to send you on your way...in the 5th photo from the top (see above) there is childlike looking face breaking out of the dark plume. Look at the top of the dark plume just right of the middle or locate it by finding the lighted area of the photo at the top that is surrounded by the dark plume..the characteristics you will see are that it has a large forehead, eyes, nose and a mouth round about a head...Can you see it now, it is very distinct? If you can’t your in denial.

Now all around this face (if you zoom in a bit) you will begin to see links (the type you would find in a chain)...Two (2) of these links appear to be coming right out of the top of the head (left and right side).... they look as if they were pierced thru the entire top of the head....these links form a connection that then wraps all around the face, continuing until there is a mass of them blending into one dark volcanic plume....it is as if this face or head has been placed in chains.

In each of these Chilean photos you will find a multiplicity of other images even some symbols that when combined as one create a human picture that we know and can understand. Know that each item you uncover relates to one common theme that runs throughout, it tells a story from long ago about an event that has been in reserve for such a time as this...your journey is now started, please don’t complete it alone, allow the Author of our lives to complete it with you.

If you would like to email me what you have seen or experience when you review these photos I would be grateful OR you may want to hear about my experiences first hand so please feel free to inquire, I can be reached at jntracing@yahoo.com. I would be glad to share my findings with you and even what I experienced 2 days prior to this calendared event taking place

Be enlightened for what you will be seeing when you look deeper is very much real.

hahahahaha pobres weonesss ajajajajajajajajja q tubieron aiii

Well, I had no idea of the eruption----somehow it never made the news I read.

My interest in Marie's disease (why this site came up) was that when I read Super Volcano--Yellowstone, was a fossil formation of hundreds of animals died together and while the scientists were examining the fossil bones, a local vet noticed that the bones showed a condition he recognized !!!! because he had examined horses that died in a barn fire that lived no longer than 2 weeks, dying agonizing as their tissues bloated. As they were valuable animals, his expertise was called upon to autopsy the animals. Do you know flouride was first lauded as a way to increase bone mass and discovered it just moved the calcium around...

hahahaha, these comments are so very entertaining. I'm all for Mother Nature, in all her glory, there is nothing so beautiful as what she creates for us to see everywhere each and every day. I'm thankful that it's pretty much impossible to cover the whole world with concrete and somewhere there will always be an amazing example of her work. Be it a huge event like this or a very tiny little bug on a dewy morning. A little preaching of my own - please recycle, please reduce your driving, please pick up garbage here and there, please don't litter, please grow things in your yard and buy locally and please stop for a moment and enjoy what is around you every day and appreciate it and respect it. Every little thing you do helps, you can't pick up all the cans, but picking up one can is better than leaving it on the ground... Every little thing helps.

god will make it so that wont happen

That is the best picture GREAT JOBB!!!!

Some truly "Amazing photo's" Pleasure to join in this blog.

Hey. I've been living in Chile since July. This is scary sh*t. I thought I was moving away from Mt St Helens for a reason (for those of you who haven't followed the non-political bullsh*t in the news in, oh I don't know, four years, Mt St Helens was having "hiccups" a few years back and everyone was shitting their pants hoping it wouldn't explode again).

In response to #77: Teehee. You made me giggle. I'm pretty sure God didn't raise His children to smite the likes of their fellow humans. If you really want to convince us that we are better off in the end by following the teachings of God or whatever, maybe trying to insult us or scare us into it isn't the most Christian way to go about it. And I'm just saying that as a born-again Agnostic. Oh, and yeah, I know you feel sorry for us poor suckers that don't step down off our personal high horses and accept the presence of a greater being...but if you truly believe one exists, I feel sorry for you for not looking into all the other religious candidates first, rather than getting sucked into one church. Why not test-drive other religions? That's what I did, and now I feel I have an informed enough decision to choose not to believe in anything. Cool how that works out. Do yourself a favor. Servants of God should be humble and friendly, not spiteful and arrogant. Maybe you missed that part of the Bible. Reread Revelations (you know, as a moral reminder of just exactly MIGHT happen to you if you keep living your life as a jerk) and reconsider the way you treat “non-believers” (or members of other faiths) before jumping to the conclusion that you're better than everyone else because you’ve “found the right idea”. Long story short: STFU.

To anyone else who feels upset by this comment: I recommend watching the "House vs God" episode in Season 2 of House MD. You'll feel much better. :)

Your all so caught up in your preaching on both sides of the equation. This area of the world is one of the most beautiful I've ever been to. The people here are absolutely amazing. Those homes your looking at are absolutely immaculate on the inside. If your walking around town In Futaleufu or Chaiten people invite you into their house for lunch. They all have more than most of us will ever be able to find through god or not. Your all typing away from your homes or offices preaching from your soap box. Go down and help out or go on to friends of the Futa website and save these areas from mining companies. This is going to really destroy their economy and give mining companies a foothold. Looking at what happened and listening to these comments that have nothing to do with the people and the place makes me sad. Please use your energy to help out or visit this beautiful place. I'll be going down this winter. I have many friends who have business there and will be going down to spend what money I have and clean up. thanksk

I love you with all my heart.

Amazing amazing shots.

Rock on Kelsey.

Stella you and your friends scare me.

Leaving now

God ( whatever you call him/her) bless the people of Chaiten. In the middle of the night in April of 2008, i stepped of the boat at Chaiten.. A local gave me a ride to town (for free) , to a wonderful hotel. I was treated to a great nights rest and a breakfast for my first day in Chile. What a heavenly place I thought. I remember meeting a merchant who ran a butcher/vegetable shop in the center of town. He had worked in Canada for many years. He had just bought a ranch nearby from his grandfather. I considered him very lucky. I wonder what he is doing now. ?He is one of the many faces I remember. I have fond memories of many people I met there. This is all with me speaking very little Spanish. I hope to get back there someday. I think it would be very sad, strange ...alien. I think the townsfolks are displaced and living whereever they can. .God bless the folks of Chaiten and the wonderful people of Chile.

as a news watcher, I'm wondering why this didn't make it to the US news? I'd much rather hear and see this stuff than which moviestar is cheating on what political celeb. Probably not enough people killed to make the media interested.

WHAT!? 9000!

God, Bah, Two plates have risen against each other / \ to cause a volcano.. but since this one pre-existed, the plate Chile is on has moved over a "Hot spot" which is a magma chamber underground, the volcano was a weak spot.. the lava came flying up with all the added fury of being trapped below and blew this volcano to bits, unfortunatlly several towns were nearby and got owned by nature, i do feel for them, but GOD DID NOT CAUSE THIS (if he did he would have saved the f-n cow... this is only a general overview of how this volcano was caused, if it never passed the "Hot spot" none of this would have happened

awsome picts feel bad for everybody

that is awsom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I Fell bad for dem ppl !
I wuld be scared at a tym lyk dis !!
poor ppl =[

To 79
Well said Ray, solidarity should have no border.

I have never been scared of nature or anything but this was the most terrifying picture i have ever seen but it was cool to i love nature and every thing but this was awesome and scary at the the same time

that is so cool but scary and sad 4 the cow i guess i would say that cause i live on a fame but from al the deaths from volcanos rip

I feel real bad for all the people who died in the volcano eruption. And I hope they all are in a BETTER place.

I've just been to Isla Chiloe, just off the coast from Chaiten. The volcano is still spewing plenty of smoke and ash = you can see it clearly from 100's of miles away. Impressive.

Some scientist believe that the end of the world will happen with a Super Volcano--Do you know what a Super Volcano is? If not look it up on the Internet. The above pictures are truly phenomenal. A super Volcano will make the above volcano's look like a small pimple on the end of your nose. 80-90% of the human population will end. Scary--absolutely

awsome

Sheesh. If people like those ranting here are going to heaven, I'm not sure I want to...

i love this website

looks like the gates of hell to me

These are truly amazing photos. Wonderful composition and depth adds to the photos. The detail of color on the photos with the lighting are perfect. Great Job!!!!! I'm a photographer myself, and if I can shoot photos like in the near future, I know I will be very successful...

Thank you for sharing!

Manmade greenhouse gasses are truely insignificant compared to nature. Bet this volcano put out more ash and pollution then all mankind in the past century! What a site to see (from a distance.)

Does anyone know if it is possilble to purchase some of the photos as posters? That lightning is incredible.

holy crap a dead cow

i think it is so awesome that people can really get these pictures lioke that is so sad bou im really scared peoply say were gonna die in 2012 cause of a volcano

TO ALL READERS,
Chile is and have always been hit by Volcano Eruptions and devastated MEGA Earthquakes and Tsunamis. It's all in records, since mid 1500'. The last known: May 21 and 22nd of 1960. It was not just one-powerful earthquake, but about 15 earthquakes. The strongest, it was recorded as 9.5 of the Richter Scale and it was shaking (strong) for about 10 minutes. The Tsumani that followed, it traveled all of the Pacific Ocean, and reached Hawai in 14 hours and the coast of Japan in 22 hours.
The whole country is a Volcano. There is a count of over 4,000 volcanoes, many of them, active volcanoes. So, volcano eruptions as well as earthquakes will always happen.
Don't be surprised about Chaiten Volcano. The good thing: Chile is well prepared for these emergencies, that include Volcanos, flooding, earthquakes and Tsunamis; thanks to the Onemi, the chilean bureau that manages all kinds of emergencies (FEMA in USA).
I just wanted to send what I know, for your information.

wow...amazing pics. I wonder why we never see these events on the news. It seems to me that it would be newsworthy. I have never seen shots of lightening when a volcano erupts. There is some question in my mind as to what lightening (which comes from the ionosphere) and volcanic activity (which comes from below the Earth's crust) have to do with each other.
I have some idea...but I am not sure that it would be well received. I would recommend that people would do some personal research about the ionosphere, and also other weather and volcanic phenomenon. If you look into this enough, you will understand what I am getting at.

Devestating Power. The Volcano photos are beautiful. I want them as posters on my wall. Humans try so hard to produce electicity and power. One volcano produced power for the whole world in one day, maybe one hour. This shows how little minded and feeble the humans are. The volcano has shown it's power. Dam, I'm so blown away by the lightning on the volcano, it reminds me of God or Universe.

i think these are really good pictures. it looks so cool! these pictures intersest me! just remember all the pictures that you take is cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think these fotos are well braw (scottish word ;)) basicly i think the are good and they show alot about the secected eruption. i ecspesh love the ones of the lightning

xxx ;)

how lucky we are in canada, fell so sorry for those people who as to live through
something like that,

People who do not believe in God were not created by God and do not need God to exist. In fact even people who do believe in God were not created by God and don't need a non-existant God to exist; they just don't know it. Religion is the refuge of people ignorant about nature as a way to explain their fears about events in the natural world (natural=nature=natural). No God and no Jesus need apply.

Volcanoes, floods, massive fires, tidal waves, glaciers, et al, were occurring as natural processes long before humans populated the globe.

I think that all the people that live there i am veary sorry that the people that died and i am happy that there kids are safe and sound that the kids are importent just as looseing there homes.

That is very cool

For almost a year ash and gas have come each day from Chaiten Volcano. What accumulative amount of damage is happening and to what areas of South America is that not many scientist or reports venture. What a shame that there are not yet any significant studies of this region and this volcano..

varry intring it was good

The "Year without a Summer" was in 1815 (or 1816?) when Tambora erupted in Indonesia, even bigger than Krakatoa 70 years later.

i hait the Volcanos its scared me out!!! :s

im doing a science report on this and i think its awesome!!!

tha tis like wow

THE LIGHTNING WITH ERUPTING VOLCANOE F*CKING SWEET!!!!!

that awesome photo lighting with erupting great job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i bet you have good wage for that

omgosh

Santa Madonna, where has the US education system gone?
I read with sadness and concern the plain weird religious interpretations of something as (relatively) simple as this natural phenomenon. I think it's perfectly ok to be a believer. I am one, for that matter, but one who reads (something other than the Bible) and thinks. You guys should try and do the same for once.
And the guy who praised #124 for his wisdom and moderate point of view: stop smoking crack, my friend.

Whats truly amazing is we have spectacular pictures of a natural earth process.

People feel compelled to blog about religion, politics, human nature, and any other subject that is unrelated to the pictures.

If you can't comment on the volcano don't blog.

thts the bomb dudes volcanoes r awesome lata

hey they look wikid

These were some of the best pictures i have ever seen!!! Expecially the lightning ones!!!!!

Most awesome pictures of volcanic blast. I never realized that lightning was so much a part of a volcano eruption before. Good honest post of happenings.

the people arwe smoking well they should nt be bc the volcano is erpuppptting

The pictures are awesome but there is no need for bad words when expressing.
That is so totally --------- sweet! =BAD
That is so extremely sweet!=Good

holy crap that is the most awesome pictures that i've ever seen!

this crazy wow it just erupted feburary 20 2009

I feel bad for all the people/animals.
Every person that wrote against My God the only living God needs to get saved or you will go to hell, then after the rapture pluss a few thousand years you will go to the lake of fire, which by the way is hotter then lava pluss a million degrees pluss i don't know how much degreess, and this is the second death and you will have an everlasting death. just a few point with the truth. You can call me a freak as much as you want to but it takes a freak to know a freak. Cool pitures though!

COOL !
HOPE TO SEE WHAT WOULD BE LIKE 1 DAY AFTER A ERUPTION AND THE PICTURES ARE THE MOST AMAZING THING I EVER SEE

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To bill m you say People feel compelled to blog about religion, politics, human nature, and any other subject that is unrelated to the pictures.my god get glasses
man theres demons and people in hell in these picture!!!god bless

good pics :)

i want to marrie the dead cow

Re:221....Yes. I agree with you 100% ! You are a freak. Did you know that Jesus
wasn't Christian? Did you know that he and his father were carpenters? Who do you think the Romans got to build all those crcifixes ? Wake up and join the human race. We don't need churches and we don't need you crazies belting out all
that bullcrap. Vaya con Diablo, stupido !

Dick from San Diego

RIGHT ON, DICKIE !

Waytago, Richard !

the ones with lightning was absulutely awesome and cool

WORDLESS

It's just a volcano erupting with some cool lightning going on, not mother nature "taking back" Earth or anything to do with god or the devil. Why do you f*ckers always bring your stupid ideas into everything? Jesus Christ...

good pictues and good information about the volcano so that people can be rescued from these natural calamities , i love this web site

134, shut up. This has nothing to do with God, it's just a volcano that's still active.

oh noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo........................

These pictures are awesome. It shows that we truly have no control on the environment and most other things that go on around us. As for #157 and #234, don't automatically assume that this has nothing to do with God (or some other force besides nature). Just because you say that it has nothing to do with God doesn't mean that its true. You could be right, it might not have anything to do with God, but you could also be wrong. If you are wrong and God exists, whose to say that you'll be able to understand how he works? The concept of God is that God has all the power in the universe. If we have a higher being over us like God, we most likely won't be able to comprehend everything about him. It would be like trying to teach a dog or even an ant all the things that we as humans know. Its just not possible. So basically, we should just stop being so closed-minded and try to open ourselves to new truths even if they are completely contrary to what you have always known. We should strive for truth no matter how outrageous it may seem because in the end, what does it matter what you believe if you end up being wrong. You'll just be wishing that you had found the actual truth. You should really consider looking into religions or faith to see if they might be true. Religions could be all wrong and the worst that will happen to them is the same thing that will happen to you. We'll all be rotting in the ground, end of story. But if you're wrong and one of these religions or faiths are right, then you're probably going to be on the wrong end of the rope with consequences much worse than rotting in the ground. Don't just settle for what makes you feel good either. Settle for what is true. And all the "Christians" on here who are bible-bashing, you should just love these people and stop judging them. Judging is not your job. Who's going to become a Christian through you degrading them on a comment board. And just to mention again, these pictures are awesome. I wish I was good with a camera or at least with photoshop lol.

These are amazing what fantastic pictures! They show how beautiful and minute we really are in the scheme of things.

Did you know that this year another volcano erupted in Chile? It was Volcán Llaima, and this time it include a lot of lava, so dont worry so much ... here in Chile we are somehow used to volcanoes ... your sweet anyway, thankyou for your concern!

Dottie: I cannot believe you really think "Mother Nature" starts with Poor countries to take "back" the planet!
What a waste of a brain!
"Mother Nature" and "God" are the same idealistic dream of people that wish all could be explained with one or two words.
The people of Chaiten wants to return there, no matter what, and the Government want to build another town 10 km. to the north- to a Volcano, 10 km. are a joke, but there it is.

Fascinating how many people here are more upset about the dead cow than the houses and people's lives that have been uprooted. Friends, a bovine is just a piece of property. Here as there. The farmer who owned that calf was probably pretty broken up about the loss, too. But not because he lost a "friend." He lost part of his livelihood.

The photos of the lighning over the volcanic ash cloud are amazing, and exactly what I was looking for when I made this search. Thanks so much!

Wow....that's is really terrible. Lightning covering the smokes wow! That's the most terrible volcano i have ever seen.

i love you

Beauty of denger

those picts are so cool that i even put it in "my pictures". u rock @ findin' picts like that and im e-mailing all my friend , tell them where i got the picts from.

that is really cool

wow~!!!!!!!

its awesome but needs more

there are a lot of crazies looking at these pictures. somebody find #160 and get this dude help. "metaphorically speaking", you're whacked out. volcanoes don't have DNA.

In response to post #151, I believe that the plan should be to do irreparable damage to the Earth so that it cannot hurt us any longer

My best to those in the middle of this tragedy. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers and hope that all had enough time to escape such an amazing, amazing sight! The pictures are beautiful and at the same time very frightening! We are watching our Mount Redoubt here in Alaska as it is still very much active and has had it's few days of ugliness...but, where there is smoke there is most likely fire and probably haven't seen the last of Redoubts bursts.

To all those crazies talking about how god is responsible for this volcanic eruption......I live in Nashville, the "buckle of the Bible Belt" and on 9/11 I distinctly remember saying to a number of religious types "Look what god did!".

Their stunned looks and feeble responses were classic.

Yeah, yeah-I know I'm going to Hell; but when I get there my plan is to be a key menber of senior management.......

THAT'S SO INTENSE!!!!!!!!!!

These pictures are fantastic. It's amazing how beautiful, something so dangerous,
can be.

*can't think of anything to say*

that is the sickest thing ive ever seen. loveyass.
