Early morning capture during 'blue hour' just before dawn. A river of lava running down the Pali in the background rolling toward the ocean entry
Restless Lava moving forward near the Pali. Forming in smooth Pahoehoe texture. With cracks expanding as the molten Lava lifts to ooze forward.

The ‘Lava Firehose’ flowing full force with chunks of hardened lava dropping into the 70 ft. lava-fall. The flow measured about 12ft in diameter at the tube entry and more than 30ft where it hit the ocean

One of my favorite images from Hawaii Volcano National Park. After a long night of hiking the capture took place at 3am. Two shot horizontal stitched panoramic. Saturn can be seen rising on the left side of the image. Stunning and so Alien, hard to believe it is from our planet!
