I happened to glance out of the window on a recent evening and saw a nice sunset in progress. My house is not great for sunset photos, with power lines and trees getting in the way. If I walk down the drive towards the street, there’s a spot that’s not too bad for photos. But these days I have a new option.
The house below has been empty for months – and falling rapidly into disrepair – but it has some clean and open views (though not the “expansive views of Maui” in the real estate listing). So I marched down there and took advantage of the gorgeous skies and lovely palm silhouettes that were on offer.

Great photo Graham. I saw some great Kilauea videos the other day. Looks like it is brewing for something a bit bigger

Not sure about that. The first day of this eruption was very vigorous, but it’s quietened down a lot since then. Still chugging along, but not nearly as dramatic as that first 24 hours.

Stunning photo, Graham. I’m not sure if it’s warm, but it looks like it is.

Thanks Jo. Yes, Kilauea started up again a couple of mornings ago. I saw some great images from the initial eruption, but it’s already settled down a bit from that. I’m hoping to get down there, but I have a lot going on right now, so not sure if that will happen.
