FLIR (Forward Looking Infrared Radiometer) image of the erupting intracaldera cone of Veniaminof volcano.  In this oversaturated image (due to low thermal imagery setting), the active lava flows are red and the lava fountaining at the summit is easily visible.  These lava flows are on the east flank of the cone.
