Photo Of The Day By Yvonne Baur

Today’s Photo Of The Day is “Forces of Nature” by Yvonne Baur. Location: Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park.

“The Kamokuna Ocean Entry was only a few miles away from where I lived, so I visited often and took advantage of the forces of nature,” says Baur. “One day, I went on a boat ride so I could see the fresh lava from a different vantage point. It was a rough day with high surf and it wasn’t easy taking images on a moving boat at twilight. But when I saw this scene of lava entering the ocean, battling the elements, I knew I had found my shot.”
