The angle of sunrise
I was driving up the hill to work, when I noticed the sunrise, over the lower slopes of Hualalai, was illuminating the ridge exactly. It was also creating an angled wedge of shadow on the opposite side of the volcano.

Two views of Hualalai
The top photo shows a view of Hualalai under cloudy skies, taken from the water yesterday morning.
The second photo shows pretty much the same view, taken on Christmas Day morning. What do you mean, where did it go? It was actually a less cloudy day. The big difference was that the wind was blowing from the southeast, driving vog from the latest eruption of Kilauea in this direction. Vog is volcanic smog and when it’s this thick, it can be quite acrid and you can taste it! It makes life miserable, especially for those with any kind of respiratory ailments.
The vog was bad for two days before the trade winds returned and blew the vog away from this part of the island, allowing the view in the top photo.
The dawn’s early light
Early morning at Hapuna. A couple more hours, and the beach will be a lot more populated.

Fishing from the breakwater
There are signs asserting that fishing is prohibited in Kawaihae Harbor. This fisherman could argue he’s not in the harbor, but on the edge of it. However, since walking along the harbor breakwater is also prohibited, he’d still likely be in trouble. A lot of potential drama for what was a very tranquil scene, with Pu’u Wa’awa’a and Hualalai in the background!
Waves
