Hawaii's Kilauea volcano put on a dramatic display Sunday night, shooting lava fountains over 1,000 feet into the air. The six-hour eruption, which ended at 10:25 p.m. local time, marked the 23rd episode in a series of eruptions that began last December.

According to the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory, in some areas the fountains of lava erupting from the vents has reached up to 1000ft (300m) in height, which is almost the height of the Eiffel Tower. Since an eruption on 23 December, activity around the volcano has been stop-start, lasting as little as 13 hours to as long as eight days.
