Actually called the Cheltenham Badlands, this area of exposed and eroded red stone lies near Caledon, Ontario. The reddish coloured stone and brilliant reds and golds of the autumn leaves make for a sharp contrast with the bright blue sky. Purchase royalty-free license for this image at Clustershot

E malama ‘ia na pono o ka ‘aina e na ‘opio / Hawaiian Translation: / The traditions of the land are perpetuated by its youth From my collection: / Napo’o ‘ana o ka la / These beautiful colours are created by Vog, atmospheric conditions from volcanic activity on the Big Island which affects Maui. / Sunset Ho’okipa Maui Hawai’i / Currently with 1459+ Views The West Maui, Mauna Kahalewai and Hale Mahina mountains are older than Haleakala – more eroded, lush, and alive. Mauna Kahalewai mountains of West Maui are sacred and known to Kanaka Maoli (indigenous Hawaiians) as a legendary place of the past, what is known as Wahi Pani according to Kupuna Charles Kauluwehi Maxwell. The highest peak of these mountains is Pu’u Kukui at 5,788 feet. ‘Iao Valley is the most famous valley of this mountain range visible in this image shrouded by dense cloud cover at the far left on the horizon. Kahakuloa is on the right and the island of Moloka’i is on the horizon on the right shrouded in dense cloud cover. “Vog is a portmanteau of the words “volcanic” and “smog,” and a volcanic smog is formed when sulfur dioxide and other gases emitted by an erupting volcano mix with oxygen and moisture in the presence of sunlight. The term is most often applied to the island of Hawaiʻi, where the Kīlauea volcano has been erupting continuously since 1983. Kīlauea emits an estimated 2,000 tons of vog every day. Vog is a volcanic mixture that includes gases and aerosols which react with oxygen, moisture, and sunlight.” Here is an interesting story in the New York Times just one week after I took this photograph Information from the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory Hawaiian Vog: Where There’s Smoke – There is Something Brewing Copyright 2009 – 2010 © Sharon Mau / My images do not belong to the public domain.

It is perhaps the most renowned windsurfing site in the world, The waves here are largest during the winter, and break across a system of reefs that extend across the bay. During the summer the waves are smaller. Ho’okipa is ideal for windsurfing because of its large well-shaped waves and strong winds. The name Ho‘okipa means “hospitality” in Hawaiian. While ever-present strong winds and powerful currents do not make the beach a place for beginners, experienced surfers and windsurfers continually flock to Ho’okipa for both recreation and windsurfing competitions. There are four distinct surf breaks at Ho’okipa. Pavilions is the break furthest east, off the lookout parking. West from it, facing the main parking, is Middles break. Usually these are both left to surfers. The area between the two, which catches fewer breaking sets, is sometimes referred to as Girlie Bowl or Green Trees. Next further west, facing the lifeguard tower and the narrow sand beach launch, is H‘Poko or Point. It is the most popular break for windsurfing, and generally breaks as a right. With the prevailing trade wind direction being east to east-north-east, this is most frequently down-the-line sailing on starboard tack (wind from right when standing on the beach). Yet further west, past the rocky point, is Lanes, which generally breaks as a left. Under relatively rare conditions, known as Kona, the prevailing winds become southwest, and Lanes is ridden down-the-line on Port tack (wind from left when standing on the beach). This only occurs a few days out of every year. Ho’okipa Beach is occasionally a tourist attraction in the winter time because of spectacularly large surf. In the afternoon on 15 December 2004, for example, many tourists visited the beach to see waves as large as 30 feet pound the shore. This year on 08 December 2009 the waves were over 30 feet and the surf so rough the beach was closed. Officials warn visitors to stay away from the water, as the surf may be very deadly. Despite this, Ho’okipa is not an ideal site for true big-wave riding, as the waves close out when their faces approach about 25 feet. During such episodes, other deep-water breaks offer more rideable waves, an example of which is Jaws, offshore Pe’ahi, Maui, which is a very short drive from Ho’okipa.
