Re: End of the Day for Me, Beginning of the Day for You

The big Island is nice. My wife and I did about 1000 miles in the rental car in the 2 weeks we were there. Riding would get boring over there after a while (I'm a long distance rider).
We saw this chick's bike at the Hilo HD shop

Definitely one BEAUTIFUL place

The only place I know that you can go from sea level to 13000 ft in just a few hours.

Excellent photo!!!

Where were you when you took that pic?

I remember waking the one time we visted Israil and a sunrise shinng off of a church just off of the port. That was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen..... I still have video of it somewhere --- sadly no captures or .jpgs or others....

good stuff!!!

Cheers!

Re: End of the Day for Me, Beginning of the Day for You

Aloha Jimmy,

I was standing on the beach at the old airport in Kailua Kona, Hawaii.
I recently decided to get back into film photography after 35yrs and was taking photos with a new (to me) $40 Minolta xg-a. Also a few black and white with a kodak six-20 bullseye. As it always happens, I didn't bring extra film and ran out before sunset so this photo was taken with my iphone.

here is another

mahalos, Jim

Interestingly enough, after talking with a friend who lives about 14 miles north, that little rain squall visible in this photo completely obscured their view of the horizon. Translation...."the sun set into the clouds here."

These photos were taken tonight, by the way.

aloha
Jack
