Peter Lik New Volcano images

Master photographer Peter Lik returns from Hawaii with his most captivating photographs yet, taken after braving the elements for weeks on the Big Island. One image in particular, titled "Pele's Whisper," features the profile of Pele, the Hawaiian goddess of fire, appearing to blow steam from the ocean surface - an image Lik calls "my shot of a lifetime."
