The Waterfalls are Amazing

 

With the almost non-stop days of rain in East Hawaii, the plants around paradise are happy.

 

Even with the constant rain, its easy to be outside to do errands and still enjoy the day. Driving to a party at Honomu town, I decided to stop and visit the beautiful waterfalls at Akaka Falls. The falls should be amazing now with the rush of waters coming down from the higher elevations of Mauna Kea into the canyon gulches below before they flow into the Pacific ocean.

 

 

Wasn’t I right?  Its is amazing to see this - sometimes you just need to take a

break from the everyday routines to enjoy the moment and nature around you.

Especially when it puts on such a spectacular display. 

Rainy Day Garden - A Photo Study

Its been raining all week, putting a slight damper on doing fun outdoor activities...

Although being able to photograph some garden vignettes in the rain is still doable as you can see and clouds actually make for a better light for detailed studies like these floral and plant displays.

The colors of these tropical plants tend to become more saturated and vivid....shadows add more detailed focus on the the highlights.
