Christian shrine at Mt Mayon, Philippines

At the base of Mt Mayon, an active volcano near Legaspi in Philippines, is the ruins of a church which has survived more than one eruption. At the ruins there is also a cemetery and this small shrine, which was deserted at sunset except for a few children selling postcards.

    Love the light on the shrine, versus the looming dark volcano

    It makes me think of volcano worshippers, what with the juxtaposition as it were. Got my VOTE!
