This fall I did a tour of Peru and our guide told us that he was on this volcanic island when this photo was taken:
It's Sarychev Peak on the Kuril Islands (Russian owned). Photo taken from the space station and one that got my attention at the time (2009). He said that the eruption sounded like a jet airplane up close, and they really couldn't see anything because of the dust. He was leading a nature tour by Kodiak boat from a small cruise ship. It took about an hour to make it back to the Zodiacs and get the hell out. National Geographic had a small article that says nobody was on the island - false.
