Description
Lava Oozzzzing out: Standing on a lava mound, I could hear little popping sounds but wasn't sure where it came from. It sounded like it was right next to me. Then I saw the red lava oozing slowly out 30 ft before me. It was just luck that I stopped and not walk any further or I would be toast. I laid down my "Umbrella" and set up my tripod. Took many pictures as I could from this lava mound (didn't want to move an inch). I could feel intense heat as if I'm in an open oven. Feeling a little drained from the heat, I decided to pack up and leave, I had enough pictures. I attempted to pick up my umbrella and had to drop it. The handle was very very hot! I could see below me thru the lava cracks a red glow, lava was under me. Yikes! Aloha and thank you for viewing

An umbrella? For the heat? For lava coming from heaven? LOL! Yeah, those things can absorb a lot of heat and you realized that by taking it! An incredible capture, verrry impressive! Thank you for sharing this exciting stroll!
sharky_
jcv2..Yes an umbrella, lol. The day started out with a little rain. The umbrella became an important tool as I used it to probe the lava.....soft rock? hard rock? I just wasn't sure what to expect as I walked over the lava flow. Aloha
