Hot Lava by Miles Whittingham
This is an aerial view taken from a helicopter of the lava flow from the Kilauea volcano on the big island of Hawaii. It has recently been active.
Notice the rich texture of the lava, which is both beautiful and amazingly dangerous.
This image shows a lava flow that is about 100 meters long. I took this photograph from a helicopter that had the doors removed so that I could get a better image. As the helicopter banked steeply to the right (I was sitting on the right side of the helicopter next to the pilot), I leaned out to get this shot. The heat rising from the lava even at an elevation of several hundred feet was intense. I feel grateful that I managed to get such a spectacular image.
