Description
From my last post, it seemed like it was all bushes from far away. Its tree's and they are falling at the hands of the oncoming lava. Here is a friends that lives in the Kalapana area taking pictures, monitoring and keeping a close eye of the lava. His house is about 3 miles away. Aloha and thank you for viewing.

Wow,it looks as though he's standing right over some lava--this is a very graphic shot of what really goes on around there. 3 miles away doesn't sound too safe!!
He and you are both drawn like a moth to the flame, and we all get to see too!
wonderful and interesting photo!
cool shot & story
such an incredible place where you live... at the edge of peril. fascinating Errol.
Amazing... I'd want to live a bit farther away than that!!! great shot Errol!!! Aloha...
OMG! I had to do a double take... I had to zoom... I had to reach up and shut my mouth! He's out there in that cracking, collapsing, steaming lava! This is so very exciting! My heart pounds at the possibilities and I can only say he must have a world of knowledge about this situation to be so confident about where he goes.
impressionnant !
Amazing shot Errol the forest ablaze in yet another reminder of living on a Volcanic Island
Stunning image! :)
Such beauty, such danger! Excellent shot.
Amazing shot!
wow that a big lava bed.
What a shame the trees are being devoured. That photographer must have tough fireproof soles on his boots.
Excellent capture!!!
as unpredictable as lava flow can be, I would not venture out to his vantage point.even you have nerves of steel.I appreciate your posting of your forays
I guess I would be checking it out if were my house being threatened. Nice wide shot of Pele taking and creating...Aloha!
Oh, those poor, lovely trees! Your friend looks so small, as if the whole could just crush him in an instant with one small burp. Great shot. It certainly evokes emotion from us all. Thanks for the view.
Looking at the pics backwards is kinda fun. lol q-:
Wow, that's really erie looking! I can't imagine the heat... I'll stick with taking pics in the snow thanks; at least I don't have to worry about my shoes melting:). Very cool shot!

I'm surprised all those trees aren't one big bonfire!
Wonderful and interesting photo !

All that you see of the forest is all gone....
