Stormy Day
by noffiToday the skies were dull and the wave action was spectacular. There was an advisory up for high surf on east facing shores and the ocean was churning. This photograph was taken near Keaau on the Big Island of Hawaii. Canon 40D / 28-135mm lens

A drive across the Big Island’s Saddle Road affords a view of both of Hawaii’s 14,000 foot mountains at one time. It is not possible to drive up to Mauna Loa unless you have a very good 4 wheeler, but you can drive up a mountain road which rises up the slopes of Mauna Kea. At the 9000 foot point there is a visitor’s center. From there on to the top a four wheeler is necesaary. At the top is a large active observatory complex. This photo was taken just below the visitor’s center and the view is toward mauna Loa. If you look carefully, you will see the snow on the top. Both these mountains are deceptive when viewed. The slopes going to their summits are very long and seem to rise gradually. It is hard to believe that they are so high. Those who master the summits know quickly that they are in thin air. Many of them will suffer from altitude sickness caused in part from the sudden rise from sea level. Canon 40D As Is

Another day with high surf warning for the windward shores of the Hawaiian islands. This image was taken in the Puna area of the Big Island. Can you see the head of a swimmer? Canon 40D / F: 8 / 160mm / ISO 100 / Shutter speed 1/250 / polarizer

This girl was much too close to the waves which were hitting a low ledge and cascading over it . She had a cell phone and was trying to take pictures of the surf with it. She was in harm’s way but….everything for a photo…even from a cell phone. Hawaii Big Island As Is / Canon 40D

I returned to the area where it is possible to view lava flowing into the sea. It is hard to photograph. The flow is quite far away and there are no lights anywhere except the red of the lava reflected in the steam. All is in contast motion as well and as soon as the camera is open for more than 1/50 of a second there is blurred motion. I took this one at dusk. Whatever I tried for settings after it was dark was not worth keeping. The settings here: Canon 40D / Fstop : 5 (Best I can get) / Shutter 1/2 sec / 75mm / ISO 800 (Less gave me either blur or was much too dark)

A nene and its mate came visiting yeasterday! What a lovely surprise! The nene, or the Hawaiian goose, is Hawaii’s state bird. it is making a slow comeback after being nearly extinct 50 years ago. It is found mainly on Maui and on the Big Island. The nene are raised in England and then are returned to the wild here in Hawaii. It is estimated that about 500 live on the Big island and 125 on Maui. / The nene is believed to be a descendant of the canada goose which is resembles. It is said that a migrating Canada goose became disabled and landed in Hawaii with it’s loyal mate.The nene is smaller and has lost much of the webbing in its feet. It is quite at home away from the water and forages and nests on the bleak and rough lava fields but it can also be found in coastal areas. That is where I took this photo. The nene was foraging through our yard. It paid no attention to me and i was able, with my 300mm lens to capture several shots quite easily. Canon 40D

Big Island is off Port Kembla NSW Australia. The locals prefer to call it Rabbit Island as there are so many burrows that the mutton birds lay their eggs in.
