These
unbelievable photographs show a spectacular mud volcano which looks like a huge
human eye when captured from the sky. The erratic phenomenon was caught on
camera on the Sakhalin Island, East Russia, at the Pugachevskiy mud volcano.
From high above, the center of the volcano looks like the pupil, surrounded by
a muddy brown iris. The 40 years Old Russian photographer Mikhail Mikhailov
said, I didn't ever see anything like this before.
Although,
there’re a lot number of mud volcanoes in the world, but this one is really
special because it is resembles with the human eye. I haven't ever seen it
looking like an eye! It is strongly believed, that it was a formed with a very
strong eruption, the mud was getting out from one point and got spread around
evenly. Therefore, the consequences created a very stunning view, looking
exactly like an earth eye especially from a helicopter. It is for sure a rare
and exclusive phenomenon. Generally mud volcanoes are formations created by
geo-excreted gases and liquids, though the process can vary somewhat. As
de-compaction occurs, gases are produced at a high rate, causing mud to become
tough. As the pressure builds up, the mud is released out of the volcano
through fractures in the structure. Well, the largest concentration of mud
volcanoes can be found in Azerbaijan, which boasts around 400 in total, some of
which have created perpetual and temporary islands.
