 Yes, those are all pictures of Mt. St. Helens during that humungous eruption on May 18, 1980.  The last one is a recent pic of the new dome building in the caldera.
What inspired me was last night I saw an amazing "video" sequence that was constucted from many still pics with scientists extrapolating mass movements and filling in with photoshop type techniques...it was amazing, but I couldn't find it online, so I collected a bunch of stills and these are some of what I found.
