Photos: Big Waves, Flowing Lava
September 5, 2012
Extreme sports, photography edition:
Two photographers risked their lives to become the first people to capture the explosive moment fiery lava crashes into the sea.
Nick Selway, 28, and CJ Kale, 35, braved baking hot 110F waters to capture these images, as they floated just feet from scalding heat and floating lava bombs.
The pair, who chase the lava as it flows from Kilauea through Kalapana, Hawaii, spend their days camped on the edge of active volcanoes to capture the incredible images.
Look at this guy:
The shots they got are really out of this world. There’s a bunch, too, at the link.
And here’s the photographers’ website. Definitely worth a wander round. (Here, for example.)
Bonus: Stromboli Online.
