This has to be a super-long exposure, right? If it is, why is the dust cloud not blurry? Seems like the cloud would be moving pretty fast after the eruption, but I don't really know.

If it's not a long-exposure, holy shit. That's intense.

What volcano, Mt. Doom?

This may be an incredibly dumb question, but I see so many pictures of volcanos erupting, and have that intense lightning paired up with it. Is it purely coincidence?

Pyroclastic explosions put a lot of dust into the atmosphere. This causes storms. I wish I could put it into more sciencey terms, alas though, I cannot.
