•  Support For this set. An alternative would have been to zoom out from shot to shot to have always the whole eruption on each photo (but I'm not shure if this is possible in the short time of a beginning eruption) --Llez (talk) 10:11, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
•  Oppose per Fauzan, especially last two shots, D kuba (talk) 10:36, 1 June 2015 (UTC)

  To me defense: there was no way to use a tripod and hope that I can use it quietly with hundreds of people around me. Furthermore between the 1st and 8th frame I had only 3-4 seconds time, all this happens very quickly and a perfect framing for each point of time of an eruption is almost impossible, and an eruption later or sooner it looks again in a different way.
