Shiveluch Volcano in the Russian Kamchatka Peninsula, photographed by an Expedition 14 crewmember on the ISS. This image was captured on or around March 21 2007, and shows a plume, blowing westward from the summit of the volcano. The volcano subsequently erupted on March 29th. Low clouds wrap around the eastern part of the mountain, obscuring the lower elevations.
