When I went out to see the last lunar eclipse, I noticed these lights bobbing in the ocean just off the coast. My guess is that they belonged to people spear fishing, or possibly in kayaks or a small boat. Regardless, I liked the abstract patterns the lights made.
A couple more photos from my visit to Pohoiki at the end of January. Here, an abandoned shower in the picnic area is backed by lava from last year’s flow.
A view of an old 1978 Peterbilt truck. If the truck were moving, it would be my last view, but this one was stationary. Phew!
A photo of a leaf of a monstera plant, probably monstera deliciosa, also known as the Swiss cheese plant. No prizes for figuring out why that is.
On one of my walks, I noticed this stuffed toy lying on a dirt road. So I dusted it off, set it off to the side, and took this photo. I was happy to see that the toy still looked cheerful despite its ordeal.
The next time I walked that route, the toy was gone, so hopefully someone had retrieved it.
I have a fondness for the patterns made by the machinery of modern civilization. These are power lines against a blue Hawaiian sky.

This old tractor now graces a small park area in a gated development in North Kohala.
