I made this photograph along the Crater Rim Drive in Volcanoes National Park on a rainy, misty afternoon.
It reminds me of a primordial time on earth when things began to settle down after eons of vulcanism, before simple life forms appeared.
The big lava rock in the foreground was probably ejected from an explosion in the Halemaumau crater.
Because of this activity that began years ago, Crater Rim Drive is closed to the public.
