This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Your 2022 Year-in-Review.’ See more responses here. Like last year, I’ve gone with a favorite photo from each month of 2021, with a caption and link to the post the photo first appeared in.

I was having a wander around a ball field in Waimea when I saw this scene in one of the dugouts. The shoes were so neatly placed, but still forgotten.

A little clump of weed, or some such thing, catches the light as it floats by.


Java Glory Vine (Clerodendrum speciosum) hails from Indonesia. I saw this one tumbling from a wall on a hike along the South Kohala Coast.

Yellow Tangs nibble on coral heads on the steep slope down to deep water at Two Step, a popular snorkeling spot in South Kona.


At one of my regular snorkeling spots, there’s a spot I call The Eel Motel. It’s a little hole in the rock, which is often occupied by a small Whitemouth Moray Eel or Yellowhead Moray Eel. On this visit, the former was home.
In the top photo, the eel’s head is on the left and its tail on the right. Even though the eel has its mouth closed, the white tip to the tail is another sure identifier. I drifted above it, taking photos, while its head twisted back and forth keeping track of me.
The markings on these eels can vary quite a bit, one of which is a full spread of bold white spots, such as these.

This is the last day for the November edition of Becky’s Squares with the theme of “Walking” (See more responses here).
I’m finishing off with part of the coast path in South Kohala. Blue skies, blue water, palm trees, and a nice, easy path underfoot. Oh, and a gentle breeze and warm, but not too warm temperature. What’s not to like?

When I went to get a haircut recently, my hairdresser was busy with another client, so I took the opportunity to have a walk through her garden as I do sometimes. I found these splendid fungi growing from the stump of an old tree.
