A paddleboarder heads back to the shore on a gray, but not too windy morning recently. That’s a slice of Maui in the background.

Night sky
This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Out of this World.’ See more responses here.
Having managed to miss all the recent big astronomical events, such as the green comet and the conjunction of Jupiter and Venus, I’ve dipped into my archive for a few other worldly photos.
The first two are of the moon, first rising, then setting. The third is a view of the night sky with distant stars peeping through a typically cloudy North Kohala night.
Prickly pear cactus
I still find it strange to see cacti in Hawaii. Stranger still is seeing them in flower like this prickly pear cactus on the Kohala coast.
Two chairs
I came across these two chairs on a South Kohala coast walk. Not a bad spot to watch the sunset.
Storm coming
Our big storm of a couple of weeks ago moved down from the northwest, from Kauai through Oahu and Maui to the Big Island. This view was taken one morning when the storm had enveloped Maui but not yet reached us. It wasn’t until late that same afternoon that the skies changed from blue to gray and black and the deluge began.
Abstracts: Rain
During the deluge of a couple of weeks ago, I took some photos that didn’t quite work out as intended, but still looked interesting to me. This is one of them.
Favorites from 2022
This week’s Sunday Stills challenge theme is ‘Your 2022 Year-in-Review.’ See more responses here. Like last year, I’ve gone with a favorite photo from each month of 2021, with a caption and link to the post the photo first appeared in.
Hawaiian Noddy
An endemic Hawaiian Noddy glides over the ocean off North Kohala.
