Photographic Print : New lava flow covering old one, Hawaii
Photo Prints From Science Photo Library
New lava flow covering old one, Hawaii
New lava flow covering an old one. Active lava flow (background, dark black and glowing red) covering an older lava flow (foreground, light grey rocks). Lava is molten rock that rises from beneath the Earths surface. It spreads out over the surrounding land, destroying most of the vegetation. Eventually, the new lava flow will cool and solidify to form a new layer of volcanic rock. This lava flow is from the Kilauea volcano on the Pacific island of Hawaii. Tropical vegetation is seen in the background. The Hawaiian islands are volcanic in origin, composed of the rock produced by successive volcanic eruptions

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing sight of a new lava flow engulfing an older one in Hawaii. The background showcases the raw power and intensity of the active lava flow, with its dark black hue contrasting against the vibrant red glow it emits. In stark contrast, the foreground displays remnants of a previous eruption, characterized by light grey rocks. Lava, which is molten rock rising from beneath Earth's surface, spreads relentlessly over the surrounding land, leaving destruction in its wake as it engulfs vegetation. However, this destructive force also serves as nature's way of creating anew. Over time, as temperatures cool down and solidification occurs, a fresh layer of volcanic rock will form. The Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Pacific island is responsible for this awe-inspiring display. The Hawaiian islands themselves are testament to their volcanic origins; they were formed through successive eruptions that produced vast amounts of rock. In addition to showcasing this geological phenomenon, the photo also offers glimpses into Hawaii's tropical paradise with lush vegetation adorning the background. It serves as a reminder that amidst such fiery forces lies incredible beauty and resilience. This remarkable image not only highlights Earth science and physical geography but also provides insight into volcanology and vulcanology – fields dedicated to understanding these powerful natural processes. Science Photo Library has once again captured an extraordinary moment in nature with their stunning photography expertise.
