Pretty impressive capture, Richard. Hope you didn't have to get too close to it to manage! Helen

sorry if this ends up twice, Pbase confused again...I love this impative, fascinating photo Richard. I visited one place in Hawaii, and watched with much interest!

Richard...this is one HOT image..and has a real sense of birth..The earth spewed forth this molten pod..contained but feels ready to lava liquidate..Cohesive is the word that comes to mind here..Very strong and very organic contrast..Great capture...Irish

Richard, your close crop of the lava makes a really nice abstract...nice pattern, sense of texture, and color contrast. I especially like how you captured the molten lava in a state of change. A really unique/good idea...& a very nice shot. You still have your feet, don't you?? :) MFC
