Steam Vents near the Halema'uma'u Crater

Karen and Mary near one of the many steam vents in
the lava field. The ground is warm to the touch.
Rainwater seeps into cracks and holes in the lava
to the hotter rocks underneath. The water evaporates
and rises through the cracks and holes and
condenses as visible water vapor when it exits.

Nikon Coolpix 995
1/245s f/5.8 at 10.3mm iso100 full exif
