Isn't this a incredible lava formation? It is in a area located about 20-30 south of Hilo town, the red coloring really draws the eye...especially as the surrounding lava is black/brown/blueish colored.When I first saw this it reminded me so strongly of the Giants Causeway in Ireland, go here for a great web site about that formation.
This photo is a little grainy (?), because the light quality was very challenging...this formation is down inside a "blow hole" by the ocean and the shot had to be timed between wave surges. (you know its been a good day when you have to clean salt spots of your glasses!)
Have a great Weekend...I'll show you how we celebrate Memorial day in Hawaii tomorrow...
