Such a simple but beautiful act of love to spend your last moments of life doing that knowing that if those photos might help people understand volcanoes and their associated hazards even a tiny better in the future it was worth it.
You could call it tragic, and of course it is, but I prefer to call it badass.

That’s Robert Landsburg although I don’t think his photos are very famous.
The series of photos that were turned into a video were taken by Gary Rosenquist, who survived the eruption.
