Mayon volcano photos, Philippines: eruption 2018, aerial images, lava flows and ash plumes

Mayon volcano (Philippines): photos

Mayon started to erupt again in January 2018, producing several lava flows on the southern and southeastern flanks along with frequent episodes of weak to strong lava fountaining and associated ash plumes, as well as pyroclastic flows triggered by collapse of the lava flow fronts.
Since the eruption seemed to be relatively long-lasting, we decided to visit the volcano during 22-27 Feb. Activity had decreased to mostly quiet lava effusion when observed during the first days (22-25 Feb):

After a pause of 2 days with almost no ash emissions, mild explosive activity resumed on 24 Feb evening (but could not be well observed then due to heavy cloud cover). The lava flow activity continued with little changes, although seemed to decreased gradually during the days were were still there (until 27 Feb):
