Thankfully, these magnificent pictures of Mount Etna's latest eruption are merely a chance to revel in the awesome power of nature rather than a reason to start stocking up on canned goods.
The 3,329-metre (10,922-feet) volcano erupted for around an hour, lighting up the Sicilian sky and providing amazing scenery for the village of Milo, just 12 kilometres away.
