Anak Krakatau?!
Blast! I need to check the site more often. :-)
I think this is a photograph of Vesuvius sometime during the late 19th or early 20th century (prior to the 1906 eruption in any case) ...
Tavurvur crater at Rabaul?
Don't open a casino Erik!
I think that going for old photos is not going to work, as there are only a limited number of better known volcanoes that would have been photographed, e.g Vesuvius, Paricutin, Etna etc.
Perhaps it's Mexico's Partucin (sp?) -- the cinder cone that rose in the corn(?) field?
Anyone notice the 2nd post?
Off-topic. Galeras in Columbia is active. There's a SO2 signal, despite comments to the contrary, over at The Volcanism blog at wordpress.
SO2 signature detect report

The system doesn't appear to be sealed. Hopefully, the new bulletin to be released today includes a mention of SO2 leakage, for accuracy sake.
Surtsi.
Going by the quality of the photograph - which I would say is from the late nineteenth or early twentieth century - my guess would be Mount Etna.
A word to Boris Behncke: always enjoyed your Italy Volcanoes site and I miss it. I still remember that video clip taken by some British chap of the 2001 paroxysmal eruption of the SE Crater on Etna: amazing!
You are a very clever person!
A buddy left a link to your blog on my own blog--To best honest, I'm not usually a big blog follower but I browsed here anyways out of curiousity. I'm really glad, too! I'm a writer myself and usually I don't enjoy reading blogs because a lot authors seem so forced, but you have a great writing vision that makes your blog a interesting read. Definitely going to be following you from now on! Expect a critical reader c:
You won't turn out to be able to add any vocal tracks, or use VST plug-ins that most other downloaded beat linees call for to full the tune in yet one more audio mixing system. So, if that is a difficulty for you personally, why would you even take into account using Sonic Producer in the first location?
I respect time and effort you put in your site.

Peinlicher gehts es mit dem Abmahnwahn glaub ich nicht mehr ...
