From The Fiery Heart, It Rises (Single)
DESCRIPTION
This photo has the most personal connection of any I've ever captured. From the Fiery Heart, It Rises was born and taken during a trip home to Hawai'i. As my name means, "Place Where the Fire Gathers" and astrologically, I'm a fire sign (Leo), I don't think anyone was more destined for this shot. A dragon within can be seen from the center. Its eye and teeth glare as it braces with its wing to climb its way from the lava pour to avoid the ocean waters. Only once every 7 or so years does the lava flow to the ocean like this. Glad I could be there this time.
AUTHOR
I'm an amateur photographer who has been shooting as a hobby, albeit a serious one, since I was 11 years old. For work and for pleasure, I've traveled extensively trying my best to document inspiring, singular moments that summarize the atmosphere and feeling of the places I go. My portfolio is a collection of memories, hopes, loves and feelings I hope to inspire others with.
