Description
Just before my hike, I was talking to 3 people asking me about the lava. I gave them advice, safety tips, some walking sticks and made sure they had enough water with them. One of the hikers was out there when the newly formed lava bench had collapsed into the ocean last year. The size of the bench was over 40 acres of land. She said she heard the noise, felt the ground shake and ran for her life. A frightening experience for her. Will let this tongue of lava get a little longer. Aloha and thank you for viewing.

Makes me wonder how many people lose their feet. Unaware. These lava shots are always interesting to see.

Fantastic - brilliant title!!! Excellent shot!!!
Beeeeee...great mind game again...LOL.I like a silvery color but still transparent to show a realy hot lava in orange!
Dear Errol, I can imagine she'd be running!! And that things would be shaking!! 40 acres of rock has a LOT of mass!!!! Super picture of the lava oozing out!!! It's so amazing to see all of this!!! A trip there is high on my list of things to do!!!! Excellent capture!!!!! Love ya!!! Meredith
Love it Errol !
definately looks like a tongue- with a nasty bite to boot!
Hot STUFF!!!
That is a lot of land to drop suddenly into the sea, wow. Great tongue there, let's see how long it gets! :) Was the lava that grey color? If not, you may want to stop down and EV or 2.
nice shot.
I've never seen lava up close, and I think I'd find just this little bit scary, to say nothing of 40 acres. (!!)
Kort...Although I did make a few adjustments after this shot, this gray was the true colors for this area. Other areas were more shinny silver. Aloha
Impressive shot. Must be a hot tongue. Excellent photo! BTW, Kurt (kurtsart) wrote me that he has found a photo from me on a russian art side. When I looked at this side I found a photo from you too (Picture Window). Here is the link http://www.artfile.ru/oboi/b/i.php?i=b|234164. Thats really not cool.
Awesome capture, and story, Bravo!!
poor lava..His tongue was hanging out!!very interessing as usual for men like us in a town in Europ!!lol!!! bravo!!!!
Wow awesome shot sharky! Kudos to you and any other human that wants to walk through those fields. My biggest gamble with 'fields' has been walking through cattle pastures and landing on a meadow muffin L Monstrous tongue ... great capture~
LOL@onefeather. That is funny... Aloha
I am glad that you have the nerve to be up and close with these lava beds so mainlanders like me can see it. awesome view
Wow!! 40 acres of land!! That is just to much! Sounds pretty amazing, and a nightmare if you were running for your life!! LOL! Awesome shot my friend! 8-)
Man it's coming out now...better step back a few feet or bust out the marshmellows...nice shot here! Aloha~
So I guess at any moment you could be toast???? 40 acres is huge??!!!!! With humbled respect... Aloha...
lol 40 acers falling into the sea lol I run too. this is wonderful
Is this the nose from yesterday? I wonder if the phrase, " Feet don't fail me now!" originated in Hawaii?
wow, so very cool, I hope to see something like this for myself some day. sorry I haven't been around much my friend, but, I'm still in Iraq. I miss my camera and miss sharing photos with everyone. will be home in a few months, have alot of ideas stored up. Have a great day.
Incredible shot, Errol. Take care on the fiields. Aloha. Diane.
Looks hot!! Like a tongue coming out of the earth :) Nice picture!!
