The idea of The Numbers Game is to enter a number into the search bar of your computer and then post a selection of the photos that turn up. This week’s number is 744. Captions are on the photos. You can see more responses here.

Sparkling waters

This week’s Sunday Stills color challenge theme is ‘Diamonds and Quartz.’ See more responses here.

I stopped in Kawaihae to take photos of a very moody sky with some sparkling waters beneath it. But this was the first time I’ve seen the lovely little beach in the foreground. I’m not sure how one would access it, as it’s a steep drop off from where I stood, but I think it would be possible to come around that little point to the left.

Tourists

A view of ʻAnaehoʻomalu Bay in Hawaii

A couple walks the beach at ʻAnaehoʻomalu Bay while a tour boat disembarks passengers into a glass bottom boat to be shuttled ashore. Tourism is down here this year, in part because many Canadians are avoiding the U.S.A due to less than friendly relations between the two countries at the current time. I won’t be surprised if other nationalities follow suit.

This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Ten.’ See more responses here. January of 2016 was the first full month for this blog, so I thought I’d post a few photos that ran back then.
