The first Mystery Volcano Photo worked out so well, I thought I'd try a second one, this time culled from my personal collection. I'll try to figure out a way to post the scoreboard on the blog so you can keep track of your standing as MVP continues.
Take your best guess!
Enjoy the weekend.

Maybe I should be pleased that in the last Mystery Volcano Photo took a whole five guesses rather than one or two, so I count it as success! The correct guess was made by Dr. Boris Behncke, so that elevates him into a tie for first.
Current Standings:
The Bobs - 3
Don Crain - 3
Boris Behncke - 3…
OK, well, apparently MVP #2 was waaay too easy because Elizabeth got it on the first try - it was indeed Villarrica in Chile - I'll post something on Villarrica later this weekend. Anyway, for the weekend, I'll leave you with this photo. Hopefully it won't be so easy ... but then again, you all…
It has been a quiet week, volcanically-speaking that is. Maybe they're all watching the World Cup, but there hasn't been a lot of new and exciting news to report this week. So, I thought this might be a good time to bring back Mystery Volcano Photo! Now, for those of you just joining us, I post a…

My guess would have to be Villarica
It does look a lot like Villarica. If not, I say Llaima.
Wait, is this like WoGE where I should wait if I got the last one correct? If so, sorry!
I was going to say Shishaldin, but it looks like I'm going against the current on this one.
Llaima .. my very uneducated guess culled from photos from Flickr and careful study of that volcanista dude..
And yes, volcanista is banned this round, that would make me winner if he/she is right again. w00t!
The summit curvature makes it look like Llaima to me, at least from this worn out old armchair.
Wow, this one must have been a "gimme" because Elizabeth got it on the first guess. It is indeed Villarrica, photographed in 2004 (by me) while I was attending the IAVCEI meeting in Pucon, Chile. I think I'll post another MVP for the weekend now that this one got solved so quickly.
I saw the picture and said: "Villarrica!" because I´m from Chile and that is atypical chilean landscape: thestreet light, the 'araucaria' at left, and obvious it was not the Llaima, because it has two summits. Badly it was late to answer.
It's the Villarrica Volcano :D I know, because I live there
and that picture was taken in Pucon.
I love Villarrica Volcano, thats why I study Geology :)
