Dramatic nature footage of a geyser discharging water and steam into the air in Russia.

The video, filmed in a place known as the Valley of Geysers in Kamchatka Peninsula, shows the powerful eruption of water and steam, after the filmer got as close as he could.

The filmer later wrote online: "The Valley of Geysers is a canyon 4 km wide, 8 km long, and 400 m deep.

"There are dozens of similar canyons in Kamchatka, but this is the only one with 40 geysers and numerous hot springs stretched 6 km from the mouth of the river."
