The Barefoot Volcanologist
‘On the ash-covered plains of Mount Yasur on the island of Tanna, Vanuatu, Phillip – an internationally recognised, self-taught volcanologist stands barefoot atop a volcanic rock bomb. Dressed in a lava-protection suit gifted to him by visiting researchers, he is framed by the smouldering volcano behind him, where a plume of gas and sulphur rises into the sky.
