The photographer said he was 'paralysed with awe' as he watched ash clouds drift up into the night sky - almost appearing to merge into the stars



Albert Dros camped out under the stars to get the perfect shot of Fuego Volcano in Guatemala as lava was shooting out of its crater


Another stunning image shows lava cascading from the top of the volcano, just 11 miles west of Antigua Guatemala, one of Guatemala’s most famous cities

The photographer chose a night with clear skies and camped out under the stars to capture the dramatic volcano eruption 



He also captured a series of images of the Fuego Volcano in Guatemala erupting at twilight. Clouds of smoke appear to glow orange, like the sunset, in one of his photos


As night fell, Dros climbed a nearby mountain to capture huge clouds of smoke cascading down the side of Fuego Volcano

Fuego stands at 12,346 ft overlooking Guatemala's former capital, Antigua, and erupts multiple times every hour making it of huge interest to researchers and photographers alike
