Description
Panoramic view of the Halemaumau crater at night.
After a long adventure to the Kamokuna shoreline where the lava from the Pu'u O'o crater was flowing into the ocean we headed to the Volcano National Park. At around midnight there was a few of us standing in awe of the glow and smoke from the Halemaumau crater. It was very cold so we didn't stay too long, but long enough to shoot a series of shots to stitch into a panorama later.
Now, 2 years later, I reflect on this image and times spent at the visitors center looking at the crater and wonder what is next. Since the latest lava flow that devastated Pahoa and Kapoho this crater has a new face without lava. A lot of the surrounding walls fell in, including the parking lot that is on the opposite end from where I took this shot, to widen this already massing crater.
