Glowing lava

Accompanied by a constant crackling sound, the lava slowly but inexorably flows out of the fissure. The heat can still be felt some distance away. The magma gradually solidifies in the morning air. New layers of rock are constantly being laid on top of each other. Watching this natural spectacle up close is an unforgettable experience.

Hawaii Lava Flow

The glowing lava can fully unfold its pictorial effect here because the photo was taken early in the morning in low ambient light. This was preceded by an adventurous night-time hike to the lava flow of the Kilauea volcano in Hawaii.

Lava flow in the first morning light

Experiencing this elemental force in the first light of the new day was a particularly impressive experience. The lava flowed slowly but inexorably. I could feel the intense heat and the forces that shaped our planet were very present to me.

Standing at the lava flow in the first morning light, feeling the heat, watching the magma move slowly and unstoppably was a very impressive event. Little humans have nothing to oppose this force of nature.

Azores - House with flowers and island view

The Azores are a very beautiful destination. São Jorge is the island, where this photo was taken. I love the island especially.
Recently there were news about increasing seismic activity, similar to the Canary Island "La Palma", there followed a destructive volcanic eruption.
May Sao Jorge be spared this catastrophe!
