Amazing photos of volcano ash covering golf course in Guatemala

Some incredible photos here of ash from an erupting volcano covering a nearby golf course in Guatemala.

Guatemala’s most violent volcanic eruption in more than a century has flattened villages and killed dozens. The power of the eruption can be seen in some incredible video and photos taken from the La Reunion Golf Resort which lies in the shadow of the Fuego volcano.

Rony Trujillo took this incredible video footage of the ash creeping towards the golf course. It’s awesome and scary. And makes you wonder why he was standing so close in the first place. Get the hell outta there…

Según el video que me mandaron por whatsapp, a las 12.55 ya estaba evacuado casi en su totalidad el Club de Golf La Reunión. El peligro era inminente… pic.twitter.com/1VLUXtB79X
