About Graham

I take photos when I'm out and about, recording life on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Shadowing

A Peacock Grouper is shadowed by a Pacific Trumpetfish in the waters off Hawaii

A Pacific Trumpetfish shadows a Peacock Grouper. Trumpetfish often mingle with other fish when they’re hunting. They can change color to match their companions. They’re generally gray or brown, but can become yellow or black, and they can display stripes or bars to improve their camouflage.

Reflecting on flight delays

Reflections in a window at Honolulu airport in Hawaii

These are the kind of photos you take when flights are delayed. Last week, our flight to Honolulu was delayed for 20 minutes because only one runway was operating at our destination due to heavy rain and thunderstorms. Coming back, the flight was delayed twice for reasons that were never explained. The upshot was that, after getting up at 5:30am to make the outbound flight, it was close to 11:00pm before we got home again!

The Numbers Game #104

Sea Monster
A sea monster lunging up? Actually, a Humpback Whale. The ‘lower jaw’ is a fin!

The idea of The Numbers Game is to enter a number into the search bar of your computer and then post a selection of the photos that turn up. This week’s number is 226. Captions are on the photos. You can see more responses here.
