I’d like to say I took this photo because I was deeply moved by the bands of light and dark, but the truth is, I was heading home in a long line of traffic going 45 mph in a 55 mph area and there was zero chance anything was going to change. So I pulled over and took photos instead. And I did like the light contrasts on offer, so didn’t regret the stop.
When enough time had passed for me not to catch up to the funeral cortege I’d been following, I put my camera away and got ready to head home. As I did so, a large truck, pulling a trailer, rumbled by on the highway. I sighed, but at least the truck driver had the decency to barrel along as best he was able and we made decent time, even on the hill up from the coast, just before Hawi.

well worth the stop

I can understand the slow pace must have been frustrating! You were well rewarded for having the presence of mind to pull over.

I don’t mind going slower on the way to work, but coming home I like to get a move on!
