Umauma stream runs into the ocean on the east side of the island, several miles north of Hilo. I’d never seen this stream, or the waterfalls on it, because I was always driving when going over the bridge, which gave this view. On this occasion, I stopped after crossing the bridge and walked back to take photos. The stream and falls were running strong because of recent heavy rainfall.
There are three falls on the stream, which can be viewed by visiting a botanical garden in that area. One of them is visible at the top of the photo, on the right. The water flowing in from the left side of the photo is a smaller subsidiary stream.
I was trying to get a photo of a turtle taking a breath – harder to get than dragonflies flying – but I liked the sparkles on the water I got by chance!

This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Storm.’ See more responses here.
I’ve gone with a few different kinds of storms starting with a Great Frigatebird or ʻIwa, which is known in Hawaii as a storm bird as they are considered indicators of approaching storms. Below is a rain storm in North Kohala on the road to Upolu.
The next two are scenes at Kawaihae port when the winds are whipping. A dirt storm above and a sand storm below.
A few clouds catch the light on an otherwise pristine morning around Mauna Kea.
