Hawaii, the only state where it's land mass keeps growing. Beautiful photo. I will be leaving for Oahu next week with camera, lenses, & tripod in tow. Although Oahu does not have regular lava flows such as this, you definitely give me inspiration.

I lived on the Big Island for 12 years. I grew up there, and honestly it was the one place I felt like I belonged. It is a magical place if you dare to open your eyes. It definitely brings a whole new meaning to the 6th sense. Aloha 'oe Tutu Pele. A hui hou.
