A plume of ashes spewed by the Chaiten volcano is seen from the city of Chaiten, 1,200km south from Santiago, Chile on May 4, 2008. The volcano, which has erupted for the first time, has buried the surrounding region under a blanket of ash and has turned Chaiten into a ghost town, with its 4,000 residents --evacuated to nearby towns and cities-- facing an uncertain future.
