As we head off into the weekend, I thought I'd put up a new Mystery Volcano Photo. If you remember the last one, it was a doozy submitted by my former introductory geology student Daphne. It took quite a few guesses before Manuela correctly identified it as Masaya (top left) in Nicaragua (although Boris did mention Masaya but dismissed it).

So, the standings are:

  • Boris Behncke - 6

  • Don Crain - 5

  • The Bobs - 4

  • gijs - 2

  • Chris Reykjavik - 2

  • Doug C. - 2

  • volcanista - 1

  • Lockwood - 1

  • Elizabeth - 1

  • Ralph - 1

  • Anne - 1

  • Cam - 1

  • gg - 1

  • Damon Hynes - 1

  • Marco - 1

  • Diane - 1

  • Stephen - 1

  • MK, Alberta - 1

  • Kultsi - 1

  • Henrik - 1

  • Zane - 1

  • Rodger Wilson - 1

  • Robin Campion - 1

  • Jan Nygard - 1

  • Cole Kingsbury - 1

  • Manuela - 1

  • Eva Hedstrom - 0.5

Here is the new MVP - user submitted.

Good luck! I'll be back next week with the answer.
