Recently, I was headed to Kailua Kona early one morning. The full moon was dipping towards the horizon as I passed the airport there, so I pulled over and took photos, just as a plane took to the air.
The second photo is an example of unintentional camera motion. I’ve no idea what I was doing, but I like the result!

A view into a store in Hawi, but what’s inside the store and what’s reflecting from outside?

Electrical fittings in a box. I liked the pattern!

I see the eyes of a lion. What do you see?

Ferns at Hawai’i Tropical Bioreserve and Garden.

The grill of a large Toyota truck and, yes, I am writing this in a deep, gravelly voice!

Sonny’s Place was a long-established restaurant in downtown Hawi. It was still in business when I first moved here, though it looked worse for wear even then. I was advised not to eat there. Within a couple of years it appeared to be shut down, though the difference was marginal at best.
Recently, someone bought the place and I wondered what they would do with it. Then this excavator appeared and I thought I should get photos before the building disappeared. I finally did a couple of Sundays ago. The next day the lot was cleared.
