Enjoy these...
as I won't be posting anymore sunsets on this trip (aren't you glad?)!
I will say that watching these sunsets as they slip into the blanket of vog is much like watching a sunset on Mars. Even though I've never been to Mars, this is what I imagine it to be. It is very surreal.
These are taken on the West end of Molokai.
I'm still home on Molokai but this is my last day here. We fly to Honolulu tomorrow for a day and a half, then begins the tedious trek back home to New Mexico.
These images are my personal indulgences (be glad that I narrowed it down to a small handful!). Not touristy or representative of the people and landscape here.
The above agave plant is in our yard in Kalae. I was drawn to the silver green color and the graceful lines of the leaves as they unfold.
There's a coconut tree outside of the landing to the condo we are staying in. These are what I call 'baby coconuts'.
This is the bark around the coconut tree.
The forest from whence the leaves came from the sunprint that I had made. These are red bark eucalyptus trees.I used to ride my horse through this forest. Don't tell my dad, but I used to jump my horse, Missy over the fallen trees.
Hope this grafitti doesn't say bad things...I just loved this oversized container.
A hooded flycatcher. Not native to Hawaii, so it is known as an 'invasive species". He's along the trail to the Kalaupapa Peninsula. Man, can this bird sing and he loves an audience.
Here are the leaves that became the skeleton leaves from the
And a closeup of the bottom of the trunk of one of those trees.
