Description
Here is looking inside the cone of "Kilauea Iki" . Portions of the cone had collapsed since its 1959 eruption. The top of the cone has large cracks with Hazardous area signs to keep out. Yes, Lady Carrie and I had gone beyond those signs. The pit was filled with landslide rocks covering up any view of the hole. Will show a close up of the pit on my next post. Aloha and thank you for viewing

Wow thats just something to get to see, awesome photo.
What some people will do for those perfect fotos!!! I think going further near a volcano is more dangerous than leaning out over the rail of a pier!! But it's a great shot, hard to believe it was so violent not so long ago.
L sharky! I'm tattling! You didn't obey the signs! A terrific shot and am looking foward to the next shot .....I'm glad you were able to leave unscathed! Wonderful capture!
What a strange thing! Very particular! PaxSV

Yesterday I was wondering when you would be back with more of these marvelous shots. This is so amazing and I'd love to know more about what this means in terms of eruptions and such. Wonderful shot.

Quite a view and glad you stayed safe. I know that the perspective can be misleading and that is really much larger than it would appear at first glance.
wonderful shot. looks very big for i looking at the trees. not sure how big the trees are but the hole and cone looks big. very good pov too
Wow, what an awesome, amazing, caldera! Superb POV, clarity and textures displayed in this shot, Shark! And the surface looks like tar or pitch.
I appreciate the excellent views, but I hope you'll stay safe, my friend.
