Mike... look in the crater slightly to the right of middle and you'll see the lava dome. Directly above the dome is a plume of steam... but look there and there are two large pale features.... they're either yellow (sulphur) or light brown.

I don't think they were there before.

I believe the dome is pushing outward more; the apparent difference is just a change in how the light hits it moreso than being a new feature.

I am having a hard time comparing because all my pictures have snow in them.

Possibly... or it's venting sulphur. That's a fairly common occurance too.

Scientists rarely come to conclusions. It's engineers that come to conclusions.

Engineers are whores of science... they do for money what scientists do for love.
