Image Caption: Colima Volcano. In this color infrared view of Colima Volcano, south of Guadalajara, Mexico, the most active volcano in the country, the dark red tones indicate a thick forest canopy on the flanks of the volcano, while the pink colors indicate thinner vegetation cover in the nearby agricultural fields. This northeast-looking photograph captures Colima in action, with a steam plume drifting southwest.
