The photographer in the picture was shooting near the volcano, and at that time, a pair of shoes on his feet and the legs of the tripod were burning. Some people thought this photo was photoshopped, but it is actually real. This photographer's name is Kawika Singson.

Kawika Singson is a hiking and landscape photographer who lives in Hawaii. For many years, he has traveled all over the Big Island of Hawaii, taking pictures in many remote places. He claims that "taking such risks is just to take a good picture and share it with others in the world."

This fiery picture was taken on July 4, 2013. But Singson is not willing to reveal the shooting location: "I don't like to disclose the location. It's a secret. I don't want people to go there, they might get hurt."

Although this move seems too crazy in the eyes of ordinary people, Singson himself is very calm: "I think it's very cool. To take a picture of volcanic lava with fire on my feet and the tripod. These are real flames, it's really hot. I only stayed there for a few seconds."
