I Love Nature

And I guess nature thinks that's a huge joke.......

Believe it or not, I got these from google images. I didn't create them. There are actual articles that go with them. Are they real? Or some clever artist playing with us?

:) the volcano looks photoshopped

@SW-User I thought so too. But

An erupting volcano in Hawaii was all smiles last week – and no, it wasn’t a Disney animation.

The lava of Kilauea, a shield volcano on Hawaii’s biggest island, appeared to form a smiley face as it erupted. The volcano has been active since 1983, with lava emerging from the Pu‘u ‘O‘o vent. As the smile appeared, lava from the volcano reached the Pacific Ocean for the first time in three years, according to CNN.

The video was taken from a helicopter by Mick Kalber of Tropical Visions Video last Tuesday.

This wasn’t the first time such a symbol has been found in nature.

After hunting I found that the second one is from Disney Pixar short film, Lava. But there is a true story behind it
