This Photographer Risked Being Consumed By Molten Lava To Capture These Perfect Shots

Ever risked your life to take the perfect photograph? I’m certainly not talking about anyone with a selfie stick. I’m talking about those daring photographers who climb mountains, brave raging winds, walk through twisters, all for getting that perfect shot.

Adventure photographer, Mike Mezeul II risked getting consumed by hot molten lava to capture this breathtaking photograph. 

“(It was) an incredible moment, one that I will never forget. Lava from the Kilauea Volcano in Hawaii crawling down towards the ocean as the Milky Way, a meteor, and the moon shine above.”

 

Here are some of his other works which are equally incredible:

1. You can feel the heat through the picture.

2. Hot, deadly and gorgeous. 

 

3. Even as it burns, nature leaves some beauty behind.

 

4. The infinite space… so beautiful.

 

5. And meteor showers just add to the beauty.

 

6. Even nature at its deadliest is beautiful.

 

7. See what I mean?

 

8. Of course, when it’s serene, there’s nothing like it.

 

9. It makes you forget all your worries. 

 

10. Just… waow!

Now that’s some incredible dedication to capture the perfect picture, don’t you think?
