The Colima Volcano, also known as the Volcano of Fire, is seen exploding late Monday, June 6, 2005, at la Yerbabuena, 430 miles (690 kilometers) northwest of Mexico City as viewed from a distance of about 5 miles (7.5 kilometers). The Colima Volcano had staged two spectacular eruptions Thursday night and Friday morning, following smaller explosive eruptions on May 23 and May 30.

The volcano, which straddles the line between Colima and Jalisco states 430 miles west of Mexico City, has had six spectacular eruptions in the past three weeks.
