1651:"*MANDATORY BYLINE* Pic by Joseph Anthony/Caters - (Pictured: A man wearing shorts, T-shirt and flip-flops takes a picture of a sea of lava that has consumed a valley and woodland in the Puna District of Hawaii. Pic taken 20/05/2018)- As millions of people watch the royal wedding over the weekend, some may have missed that Hawaiis lava flow has finally made its way into the Pacific Ocean, causing a huge lava haze or laze cloud which also contains toxic gasses. The weekend showed how devastating the lava was, producing an inland sea of molten rock and huge fountains of lava that reached up to 200 feet in height. During the night many of the erupting fissures gave an apocalyptic view of Mother Nature with skys turned blood red and roads turned to rivers of destruction. Hawaii also saw its first injury after a mans leg was hit by a flying lava boulder that shattered his lower leg. Joseph Anthony who has been photographing the raw spectacle for over a week in the Puna District exclusion zone said: The lava has consumed another building and has blocked off the track that we were using to get closer to the fountain.The lava also is only a few feet away from the gate we used to get to the forest.The height it has built is incredible, we were thinking that with the dip it would pool there for a while but all it did was build in height then advanced forwards.When I go to the gate now I have to look up at the lava river.That gate led downhill about 100 metres to the edge of the forest, now totally consumed by lava.Yes that is my washing on the line with a background view of the fissure 20, its a surreal life I have at the moment.
