A sailboat heads down Alenuihāhā Channel, between the Big Island and Maui.


An aerial view of La Perouse Bay near the southern tip of Maui. With the colors and the stark landscape, there’s something alien about this view, I think.

On my flight to Maui last month, I got this layered look at the observatory which sits atop Haleakala.

A view of Maui, seen from the water while snorkeling one day.

This bench, located on the shoreline just below the lighthouse between Mahukona and Lapakahi, is a memorial to Malcolm Davis. Malcolm was a North Kohala man who disappeared while freediving off this part of the coast in 2020. He was 20 years old and was never found.

It’s a lovely spot, with a view up and down the coast and across to Maui, a place to sit and watch the waves, a place for contemplation.


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.

This month’s Sunday Stills Color Challenge is ‘Red.’ See more responses here. A variety of subjects for this one!
