December 30, 2011
Recorded on the south shores of the Island of Hawaii Saturday morning, December 17, 2011. Video shot from a boat without any stabilization can tend to roll around a bit ... so I kept it short so you won't get seasick :) 

The volume of surface lava being sent from fissures at Pu`u O`o Crater through insulating tube systems seven miles south to the ocean changes daily, but yesterday I went by boat to witness this. For more information on how to see the lava by boat and to see some of the still images that I took there, go to my Hawaiian Lava Daily blogspot website: http://hawaiianlavadaily.blogspot.com/2011/12/lava-continues-dropping-off-cliffs-into.html

Also, you can see more images taken on this day, and other recent images, as a slideshow, or any other viewing option you desire, here on my new online gallery: Leigh-Hilbert-Photography(dot)com ...Open the Royal Gardens Lava flow 2011-2012  gallery.
