Going with the lava flow...

Nothing is permanent, not even our homes. This was a piece shot on the Big Island. Hilo, HI and all around Volcanoes National Park to be exact. Shot with a C300 on a zacuto shoulder rig. This was one of my favorite pieces to shoot. We walked on newly hardened lava. New Earth so to speak. We approached the volcano from a rocky boat to capture the lava spilling into the ocean. On top of the natural wonderment of the location, we shot a few of architect, Craig Steely’s “lava flow” homes. Modern structures of glass and clean lines standing in defiance of the path of lava.

"Lava Flow" homes are sprouting up near Volcanoes National Park in Hawaii. So who would live so close to an active volcano? Conor Knighton continues his yearlong exploration of America's National Parks.
