must be fascinating, amazing, if slightly frightening (although if you know your stuff I'm sure risk can be mitigated to near zero) - to be studying there atm I'm rather jealous -

ah I can see more clearly what the "height" on the forefront lava is now (I think) I think its the sides of a slope, with the lava flowing down it the "heights" are bits where the lava is flowing down the slope in rivers down to the lava pool at bottom -

the glowing lava in front because its getting dark - and can now see it ? and its stuff that has been expelled but then against that - it seems to have some "height" ? -

seems to be 2 distinct "openings" to the left of the main fissure one just to the left and one way to the left - I guess the whole lot will join up soon - and these points are the weakest points ? -

wow - Lava getting seriously going now !! its hard to judge scale - obviously the lava is higher than earlier - by some margin but what scale are we looking at - how high do people reckon that is? I can't tell from perspective if sort of height of a house high or a lot higher ? -
