Moonlight Lava Exploring by tomkualii
Exploring the lava fields during a moonlit night. Lava entering the sea at different points on the Big Island of Hawaii. This one about 50 yards away from making its entry. One of the best experience since being a lava photographer is being out on a full moon night shooting lava. This is a repost after spending a little more time working on the file. Looks better I think. LOL. Aloha

Synthesis by bruceomori
A longer exposure softens the movement of waves, lava, and billowing steam at the Kupapa‘u ocean entry in Kalapana, Island of Hawai‘i. The dynamicity of volcanic activity is mesmerizing, as no two frames are ever identical.

Solitaire by bruceomori
A lone drip of lava pours into the sea along the Kalapana coast. There’s hardly a sight in the world that can compare to witnessing the dynamic and creative forces of nature at the ocean entry. : )

Evanescence of Pele by tomkualii
During a deflationary period of the lava flow, Pele is slowly vanishing. The lava flows are still active but now there are no lava ocean entry. Aloha

The Ocean Entry by bruceomori
Please click to view on black, as it really makes a difference with this image! 🙂
Fingers of pahoehoe enter the sea in the foreground, while another ocean entry rages on in the distance.

Fiery Elegance by bruceomori
A littoral explosion at the Waikupanaha ocean entry sends ejecta airborne, burning arcing trails of light against the early morning sky. Incredible display of power and fury in nature’s own fireworks.

Sea Snake by bruceomori
Hate to say this again, but viewing on black does make a difference with this image! : )
A thin river of pahoehoe lava snakes its way to the sea at the Ki ocean entry in Kalapana, island of Hawai‘i. Compositionally, I hate this image, but I’ll take what I can get while standing on extremely rocky ground, no pun intended. 🙂
Shooting lava is an incredible experience… It’s a privilege to be able to witness destruction and creation meld into one dynamic force… Words fall short, but photos capture a bit of its mystical essence.

Captain Magma by bruceomori
Captain Miles Morgan, call sign “Magma” 😉
EXCELLENT pilot, AWESOME photographer, and even BETTER friend and human being. Miles, my BIG bruddah (yes, he’s VERY BIG), is getting the shot at the Kupapa‘u ocean entry in Kalapana, island of Hawai‘i. Very memorable outing with a couple other bruddahs of mine, Ryan Dyar and Tom Kuali‘i. Nothing like shooting lava with great friends whom I consider to be three of the best photographers around. 🙂
