  • ~ Pele's Braids ~<br /> <br /> Just below this banding & roping pahoehoe lava is a massive lave tube moving tons of molten lava per second.
  • ~ Pele Meets People ~<br /> <br /> Pahoehoe lava slowly churns and covers older lava along the southeast shores of the Island of Hawaii while visitors walk the edges.

  • ~ Pele's Palate ~<br /> <br /> Pahoehoe 'rope' lava oozes and rolls into amazing shapes configurations. This one covers about eight-feet across. Taking photos this close is challenging for both the photographer and the camera because the intense heat of the molten lava. <br /> For this photo I used a little bit of camera flash to help illuminate the raw iridescence of the slightly cooler dark lava.<br /> <br /> Prints to any size nicely
  • Cooled Pahoehoe lava-- fifteen feet in length<br /> <br /> I love the amazing forms Pele creates!
  • ~ Pele's Playground ~<br /> <br /> This field of lava is still very hot and is continuing to scorch the last remnants of forest along its path. The distant plume is where some of the molten lava has concentrated into underground tubes and pouring into the sea.
  • ~ Pele's Pumpkin ~<br /> <br /> ... sits perched on a cooled lava pali (cliff in Hawaiian). Pele (Pay-lay) is the Hawaiian Volcano Goddess of Fire
  • ~ When Rock Becomes River ~<br /> <br /> Large pahoehoe lava flow at dawn (and it was VERY hot!)
  • ~ Pahoehoe Lava Rivers ~<br /> <br /> ~yes it was very hot taking this photo!
  • ~ Pahoehoe Lava Rivers #2 ~<br /> <br /> Spectacular display of pahoehoe lava breaking out into bands, roping and waves and prints very well.

  • ~ Lava Burning Brush ~
  • Lava Ghost Trees <br /> <br /> A surface flow of lava takes out the forest near Kalapana on October 25th, 2009 but the burned out trees continue standing and glowing for hours; like ghosts of a tree.

  • ~ Far Side of the Plume ~<br /> <br /> Brown-tinged fine glass & sand sparkle in the sun between cooling lava formations. The plume in the distance is where lava explosively enters the sea. The glass & sand are blown downwind for miles, which is another reason to always have a good respirator available should the plume winds turn in your direction.
