Reason: Can't believe nobody's ever nominated this. The wow is right there, as is the encyclopedic value. Lovely image (though the stench....)

- The water/rock? Common in volcanic craters, at least those I've been to. I believe it's an interaction of the acidic water interacting with the minerals in the ground (and probably the presence of sulphur as well). I saw the same thing at Kawah Putih, though we didn't have such a clear day. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 00:08, 31 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]
