Kilaueu Volcano

The images were captured by photojournalist Kirk Lee Aeder, 54, at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. The collection includes incredible aerial shots of the Pu'uo crater and the Pacific island's beautiful lava fields. [My favourite thing about photographing Kilauea is simply the feeling, almost indescribable, of shooting an active volcano, often times at very close distances, in awe of mother nature], Kirk said. [It makes you realise how insignificant we are as humans next to such a powerful force of nature, it's very inspiring. In spite of all of man's technological advancements over the course of history, volcanoes return us to our origins and beginnings].
