Pāhoehoe lava advancing west from fissure 7 (lava fountain in background) on Leilani Avenue. Fissure 7 activity increased overnight, with lava fountains reaching 50 to 60 m (164 to 197 ft) high. (5/27/2018)

An aerial view, looking west, of the two active ocean entries on Kīlauea Volcano's lower East Rift Zone.... The large white plume (foreground) is the eastern ocean entry; the weaker, western plume can be seen in the distance.... The white plume, referred to as "laze," is a mixture of condensed acidic steam, hydrochloric acid gas, and tiny shards of volcanic glass that can irritate lungs, eyes and skin.

That top pic in 21 is pretty impressive. Nothing lowers the price of real estate like a 200-ft lava fountain in the backyard.
