This week’s Sunday Stills color challenge theme is ‘Black (and/or) Black-and-White.’ See more responses here.

A panoramic view of Lapakahi State Historical Park in Hawaii

This view shows pretty much the entirety of Lapakahi State Historical Park. On the right is the lighthouse, which is just north of the park boundary. The left edge of the photo is close to the park’s southern boundary. What you don’t see in this broad view are the rock structures that were part of the original fishing village.
