That is a really nice photo! The glowing fog adds an extra dimension. Thank you for posting!

It really was something else with the reflections off smoke/fog!

Here's a look at walking to the volcano via Devastation Trail
And here's a look of fellow lava watchers

I hope you didn't breathe in the vog.

On some level, I did. You can't really escape it entirely while visiting the island while the eruption is ongoing. But during this picture it was mostly blowing away (north/north-west).
