It hasn’t erupted since 1980 March 2005, but apparently Mount St Helens still counts as an active volcano. Not great resolution here yet though.

The world’s largest natural bridge. The surrounding landscape is very surreal, it all looks like it is sculpted out of play dough.

Gorgeous views of the California coast. If only I could be on that beach right now; drinking a cold one, catching some waves…

Not all of Honolulu is hi-res yet, but check out Diamond Head State Monument, which appears to be, er… inside an old volcano?
