Perhaps I should have been more specific. Does anyone have any particular hint, tips, tricks, etc., to get great pictures of a volcano or the lava?
I'll take a shot here and try to remember some of what Mike told us...
If you notice, many of his most dramatic images were taken at dawn or twilight. A few even later. Daylight will seriously diminish or even overwhelm the glow from the molten lava. Some of his shots are merges of two exposures...one for the lava and one for the sky. Depending on the level of activity, you will probably be shooting from quite some distance, so a longer lens is necessary. If you look for Mike on NikonUSA's website, you may still find some shots with the technical information posted.
