Small entry has a tough time with the waves. Incandescence can be seen faintly just right of center, mostly obscured by steam. Lava is visible in the small skylight just left and above center.

View of surface of inflating pahoehoe flow covering western part of bench. Note the cracks paralleling the shoreline. Largest crack in lower left is incandescent (best seen in large view). All lava entering the water this morning is moving through this inflating flow to the front of the bench.
