Beautiful Pa’ako Beach, Makena Cove near Alanui Road Makena Maui Hawai’i. Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved This is a part of the last pristine and very beautiful undeveloped coastline on Maui. Please help us preserve and protect Makena. The magnificent Humpback Whales frequent this area during winter months on their annual migration from Alaska to Hawaiian waters for calving and breeding and come quite close to shore during season. The beautiful and sacred Honu, sea turtles may be seen feeding in the early morning light. The beautiful and secluded Po’olenalena Beach is nearby as well. There are many names to describe this beautiful secluded beach east of Makena on Alanui Road bordered by lava rocks and palm trees. You may notice Oneloa, also well known as Big Beach, in the distance. The hill is called Pu’u Olai, a red cinder cone 360 feet high. The wave action is extraordinary and the golden sand is deep and luxurious. There is a large tide pool on the right of the beach which is wonderful for swimming. A favourite among the locals for fishing and enjoyed by many families with children, scuba divers and snorkelers, there are wonderful views of Molokini and Kaho`olawe Island. This is one of the most popular beaches on Maui for small weddings. ~ Aloha e Malama pono, Sharon Mau Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi / Shooting Date/Time 28 June 2008 19:18:52 / Tv( Shutter Speed ) 1/1600 / Av( Aperture Value ) 6.3 / ISO Speed 200 / Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM

Hawaiian translation: Intense affection, longing / From my collection: He pua laha ‘ole Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi He pua laha ‘ole translates to ‘rare, prized blossom’ ~ A collection of beautiful flowers, blooms and blossoms with Hawaiian titles and translations. Sunflower “The sunflower (Helianthus annuus) is an annual plant native to the Americas in the family Asteraceae, with a large flowering head (inflorescence). The stem of the flower can grow as high as 3 metres tall, with the flower head reaching up to 30 cm in diameter with the “large” seeds. The term “sunflower” is also used to refer to all plants of the genus Helianthus, many of which are perennial plants. What is usually called the flower is actually a head (formally composite flower) of numerous flowers (florets) crowded together. The outer flowers are the pubic florets and may be yellow, maroon, orange, or other colors, and are sterile. The florets inside the circular head are called disc florets. The disc florets mature into what are traditionally called “sunflower seeds”, but are actually the fruit (an achene) of the plant. The true seeds are encased in an inedible husk. The florets within this cluster are arranged spirally. Typically each floret is oriented toward the next by approximately the golden angle, producing a pattern of interconnecting spirals where the number of left spirals and the number of right spirals are successive Fibonacci numbers. Typically, there are 34 spirals in 1 direction and 55 in the other; on a very large sunflower you may see 89 in one direction and 144 in the other. Sunflowers in the bud stage exhibit heliotropism. At sunrise, the faces of most sunflowers are turned towards the east. Over the course of the day, they move to track the sun from east to west, while at night they return to an eastward orientation. This motion is performed by motor cells in the pulvinus, a flexible segment of the stem just below the bud. As the bud stage ends, the stem stiffens and the blooming stage is reached. Sunflowers in the blooming stage are not heliotropic anymore. The stem has frozen, typically in an eastward orientation. The stem and leaves lose their green color. The wild sunflower typically does not turn toward the sun; its flowering heads may face many directions when mature. However, the leaves typically exhibit some heliotropism. The sunflower is native to the Americas. Current research shows that it may have been domesticated twice, first in Mexico and later in the middle Mississippi Valley. Alternatively, it may have been introduced northward from Mexico at an early date as corn (maize) had been. The evidence thus far is that the sunflower was first domesticated in Mexico by at least 2600 BC.[1] The earliest known examples of a fully domesticated sunflower north of Mexico have been found in Tennessee and date back to around 2300 B.C. Many indigenous American peoples used the sunflower as the symbol of the sun deity, including the Aztecs and the Otomi of Mexico and the Incas in South America. Gold images of the flower, as well as seeds, were taken back to Spain early in the 16th century. To grow well, sunflowers need full sun. They grow best in fertile, moist, well-drained soil with a lot of mulch. In commercial planting, seeds are planted 45 cm (1.5’) apart and 2.5 cm (1”) deep.” Information source: Wikipedia

View of Mauna Kahalawai, West Maui from Kula / Protea Blossoms in Evening Light / A spectacular view from Upcountry near Kula / Haleakala Maui Hawai’i Copyright © Sharon Mau 2009 / All Rights Reserved “O Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the winds and whose breath gives life to all the world, hear me. I am small and weak. I need your strength and wisdom. Let me walk in beauty and let my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset. Make my hands respect the things you have made and my ears grow sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people. Let me learn the lessons you have hidden in every leaf and rock. I seek strength not to be greater than my brother or sister, but to fight my greatest enemy, myself. Make me always ready to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes So when life fades as the fading sunset my spirit may come to you without shame. Great Spirit of love, come to me with the power of the North. Make me courageous when the cold winds of life fall upon me. Give me strength and endurance for everything that is harsh, everything that hurts, everything that makes me squint. Make me move through life ready to take what comes from the North. Spirit who comes out of the East, come to me with the power of the rising sun. Let there be light in my word. Let there be light on the path that I walk. Let me remember always that you give the gift of a new day. Never let me be burdened with sorrow by not starting over. Great Spirit of creation, send me the warm and soothing winds from the South. Comfort me and caress me when I am tired and cold. Enfold me as your gentle breezes enfold your leaves on the trees. And as you give to all the earth your warm, moving wind, Give to me so that I may grow close to you in warmth. Great life-giving Spirit, I face the West, the direction of the sundown. Let me remember every day that the moment will come when my sun will go down. Never let me forget that I must fade into you. Give me beautiful colour. Give me a great sky for setting, and when it is time to meet you, I come with glory. And Giver of all life, I pray to you from the earth, help me to remember as I touch the earth that I am small and need your pity. Help me to be thankful for the gift of the earth and never to walk hurtfully on the world. Bless to love what comes from mother earth and teach me how to love your gifts. Great Spirit of the heavens, lift me up to you that my heart may worship you and come to you in glory. Hold in my memory that you are my Creator, greater than I, eager for my good life. Let everything that is in the world lift my mind, and my heart, and my life to you so that we may come always to you in truth and in heart.” ~ This prayer is thought to be First Nations Tribes in origin and is sometimes attributed to the Sioux Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi

This is a pencil crayon drawing that I completed as an art assignment. The assignment was to draw a person’s face without using the exact colours from the photograph. If there was a lighter colour, I replicated it using a yellow or orange and darker colours are represented through navy blue and purple tones – no black. This was one of my favourite assignments to work on and I felt very privileged to have it displayed at a local art gallery for a short period.
