Aloha, and I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer and that June is beautiful for you.
I was going through my photos folder, and I noticed so many cool moments that I was happy to capture during my 2 week vacation last year in Hawaii.
Photographs taken from my trip to Hawaii to share from my point of view endless beauty.
Locals and tourists happily swimming under the breathtaking sunset of Waikiki beach.
A glimpse of Hawaii’s many traits, its volcanic ruggedness against the pristine blue of the unending sea. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the warm and wet coolness together …
Tall gorgeous palm trees dancing to the sound of the wind.
I like the artwork around the Helemano Plantation. They have so many cute settings to pose behind, esp. for kids. Also they have an excellent work program for the developmentally disabled. A great community overall that you can feel good for supporting, and have a blast while you’re at it.
This worker from the Helemano Plantation happily let me snap this shot.
It’s a quiet afternoon at the Dole Plantation.
Pineapple in bloom, definitely if you are on Oahu, you have to visit the Dole Plantation to learn more about the many varieties of pineapples.
Papaya trees are all over the island.
Even trees express themselves in shape and posture if left alone.
The Allamanda flower is a sturdy vine with firm and shiny leaves. Allamanda blooms continuously and can grow to a height of 50 feet (15m). However, it needs a fence or trellis for support, as well as well-watered soil.
Anthurium flower close up, also called Tail Flower, Flamingo Flower and Laceleaf. It can be seen all over the island in different colors as well.
A half rainbow … it’s been decades since I saw a rainbow, so when I snap this shot I couldn’t believe.
