Leighs-Gallery > ~ Pahoehoe Molten Lava ~ This photo covers about 35 feet of actively oozing molten lava called pahoehoe (pah-ho-ay-ho-ay) in Hawaiian. In the distance is the volcano Pu`u O`o, the source of the lava. Island of Hawaii. (Order form #73)
Leighs-Gallery > ~ Pele's Inner Essence Meets Atmosphere ~ Pahoehoe 'rope' lava oozes and rolls into amazing shapes configurations. This one covers about eight-feet across. Taking photos this close is challenging for both the photographer and the camera because the intense heat of the molten lava. For this photo I used a little bit of camera flash to help illuminate the raw iridescence of the slightly cooler dark lava. (Order form #72)

Leighs-Gallery > ~ Winter Solstice Full Moon Lava #4 ~ (Please see the closer view without the moon titled 'Golden Lava Falls' in the following image, if you had seen that one at my lava photo display and are looking for it) Winter Solstice 1999. Having a full moon on Winter Solstice is a fairly rare event in and of itself, but the rising full moon that night was said to be closer to the earth than it would be again for 35 years, so I made a special effort to get this photo (and the previous & following two).
