Building Big Island
IMG# 5301-lightE copy

A very popular image because there is so much happening on this lavascape morning.

The explosions are where a lava tube is dumping tons of molten lava directly into the sea. And a portion of that lava tube has erupted onto the surface and is pouring across older lava inland.

This image looks pretty cool on canvas at 30x40-inches!
