Europe's tallest active volcano, Mount Etna, put on a stunning display Saturday night with red hot lava spewing metres into the sky.
The main eruption was located at the south-eastern crater of the 3,330 metre (10,926 feet) volcano.
Etna, which is located above the Sicilian town of Catania, often erupts but rarely causes damage. It is believed to have the longest written record of eruptions than any other volcano, with its first recorded observation dating back to 425 B.C.
Although the eruptions themselves do not put the local population at risk, residents do have to live with the ash showers.
