Lava lover Sean King

Lava lover Sean King, 47, dedicates his life to documenting hauntingly beautiful images of volcanoes on his island home of Pahoa, Hawaii. Sean spends hours waiting for the ultimate eruption and has even had to dodge fountains of lava bubbling at over 1,500C. Sean has not only captured eruptions, but skies filled with glowing red clouds, otherworldly pictures of the milky Way, meteors, moon bows and lava waterfalls Sean said: I usually shoot wide angle 15 to 25 second exposures of the flow during the night time, so I need to get extremely close, usually about an inch away Flows can move at around 5mph and can really make you sweat or melt your gear.
