Once a Year

Memorable dates, such as the spring equinox, are a prime time for weddings which are being performed all along the coast today.

The full moon also occurs today - this was the moon as seen from my house two nights ago.

And, I spy with my own eye pink cap swimmers swimming by.

More Than Fifty

Maui's Mermaids received a surprise visit from over fifty Spinner Dolphins as we returned from our swim to the Wall this morning. It's always a joy to visit with our dolphin friends.

Indoors or Out

 Some photographs absolutely need to be in color (top photo) and others work well in black & white.

The seaside chapel at the Grand Wailea will soon be torn down to be replaced with more revenue-producing oceanfront rooms (middle photo).

Wouldn't you rather be married on the beach anyway?

St Patrick's Day Surprise

Some of the Maui Pink Cap swimmers decided to avoid the windy conditions at our usual spot and do some exploring.

We headed out to the Pinnacle, then braved the unknown by swimming through the previously unconquered cave in the Wall. Whoo Hoo! First time experiences all around!

Three Items

1) Perilous Sunset Watching Perch

2) Another Perfect Morning Today

3) One of Many Waterfalls in My Neighborhood

Very Stange Floaty

I was invited out on a boat with friends this morning and got to swim with a White Tip Reef shark.

Also, we discovered this floating in the water where a group of Pilot Whales had recently been feeding. 

Subtly Sublime

 Sunsets have been ranging from subtly sublime to in-your-face outrageously vivid; and that's okay with me. Bring it on.

This was one of the nicer shoots of an expectant mother that I saw on my morning walk today.
