Pu’uanahulu is a small community not far from Pu’u Wa’awa’a, where I like to hike. This small Baptist church sits at one end of the community and is backed by trees including the jacaranda that was in bloom when I took this photo.
Posted in response to Becky’s July Squares challenge theme of ‘Trees.’ See more responses here.
The little church has lovely proportions. The purples of the church and the jacaranda are interesting together, but I guess the colour of the church comes into its own when the the jacaranda is not in flower.

I think it does. I don’t know how often the church is used, but it is well maintained, so probably has regular services.

Very picturesque and such different shades of purple. The Jacaranda has a lovely form and the one in your photo is no exception.

Ha, I doubt it, but this is a good area for these trees. I posted photos at https://grahamsisland.com/2020/05/29/puuanahulu-jacarandas/ with some views from a nearby hill where I like to hike.
