Finally, at dawn, it is light enough to see what the source of all the glow looks like. Everything in photo, except for the sea cliff near right side of image, is part of the new lava delta, still unnamed, which began forming on the night of November 5-6.

New lava flows coating surface of old Lae`apuki delta, looking east. Tiny glob of lava on old sea cliff is all that remains of cascades, but lava is flowing through one or more tubes down the cliff, across the old delta, to the new delta.
