An early morning view of Pu’u Ahumoa, on the lower slopes of Mauna Kea. Pu’u is the Hawaiian name for a volcanic vent.

On reflection
It’s been raining a lot lately and I was waiting for my pizza slices to be ready. What to do? There were two motorcycles parked in front of the pizza place, with helmets hanging from the handlebars. This one had a visor I liked, so I pulled my phone out and snapped a few images. I liked this one best, and yes, those are my feet. I left them in because I thought they look amusing and because they look a lot better in this photo than they do in real life!
Fivestripe Wrasse
I don’t often see Fivestripe Wrasses when I go snorkeling, which is not surprising since they’re uncommon here. This one is a supermale, which are even less common than the females.

Black Witch Moth
I spotted this Black Witch Moth resting on the underside of a large leaf. I like this photo for the clean line of the front of the wings and those big eyes.
