A cleat left from a jetty long since eroded and swept away by the tides on a South Maui Beach with the sacred island of Kahoolawe bathing in the light of the rising sun.

A eroded piece of lava rock being pushed to and fro by the ebb and flow of the tides along a Maui beach.
-
A storm offshore produced some beach erosion exposing some rocks that for me made an interesting leading line to the colorful sunrise.

From my collection: / Napo’o ‘ana o ka la Sunset Ho’okipa Beach Maui Hawai’i / Fine Art Photography by Sharon Anne Coultrap “Paradise is here, now. / We take walks in it Constantly mingling With the Presence That pours Its light In our secret lamps To extinguish the self Of its dire poverty: We are those lit receptacles Ruh imparts luminescence to. / This love-transfusion Pulls us to the Garden, / Singing in our veins With the spheres, / “Paradise is here, now!” / Bewildered, we throw Ourselves to the ground, / Rolling by turn in laughter Like small children, / We kiss that divine wildness That began when Allah said / “And know that you are to meet Me.” ~ Sufi Poetry by Aida Toure Free Hawaii

Nui hewa-hewa No’ono’o ulu wale / Ohana / Napo’o ‘ana o ka la / Sunset Ho’okipa Maui North Shore Hawai’i ‘Ae, if you look closely, you may notice the Humpback Whale in the distance. “It is our task to imprint this temporary, perishable earth into ourselves so deeply, so painfully and passionately, that its essence can rise again… We are the bees of the invisible … Our work is the conversion of the beloved visible and tangible world into the invisible vibrations and agitation of our own nature.” ~ poetry and prose by Rainer Maria Rilke

yesterday I uploaded some images of the two splendid lighthouses down by the harbour were I live in Wollongong…... and today I’m going to continue on my seawalk with my little plastic fantastic Holga….... just past the second lighthouse is a little park that over looks the harbour moorings and in that park is the most remarkable tree….. its been so twisted and tortured by the prevailing winds over the course of its life that its become a living sculpture…... I’ve taken lots of pictues of it but its so unreal that I find that I only really like the ones that come out of my funny little toy cameras….like this one and the one below it which was taken with a four lens action camera….. and is called…. my favorite trunk ..... and it is too….

there are some stunning beaches down were I live…. and no matter the weather or the season there will always be some wet ones in the water having a surf….. if you look really closely… maybe try a larger view…. you can see a whole bunch of little black dots in the water….. surfers in wetsuits…. or shark bait as I fondly think of them…... taken with my lovely little Holga using 120 fuji reala film…....

Sunset Ho’okipa Beach Maui Hawai’i These are true colours with no postprocessing. The beautiful pastel colours of this exquisite sunset are created by atmospheric conditions of the Vog from the volcanic activity on the Big Island. Haʻaheo ka ua i nā pali ~ Proudly swept the rain by the cliffs / Ke nihi aʻela i ka nahele ~ As it glided through the trees / E hahai (uhai) ana paha i ka liko ~ Still following ever the bud / Pua ʻāhihi lehua o uka ~ The ʻāhihi lehua of the vale / Hui: Chorus: / Aloha ʻoe, aloha ʻoe ~ Farewell to you, farewell to you / E ke onaona noho i ka lipo ~ The charming one who dwells in the shaded bowers ~ One fond embrace, One fond embrace ~ / A hoʻi aʻe au ‘Ere ~ I depart until we meet again. Until we meet again / ʻO ka haliʻa aloha i hiki mai ~ Sweet memories come back to me / Ke hone aʻe nei i ~ Bringing fresh remembrances / Kuʻu manawa Of the past ~ ʻO ʻoe nō kaʻu ipo aloha / Dearest one, yes, you are mine own / A loko e hana nei ~ From you, true love shall never depart / Maopopo kuʻu ʻike i ka nani ~ I have seen and watched your loveliness / Nā pua rose o Maunawili ~ The sweet rose of Maunawili / I laila hiaʻia nā manu ~ And ‘tis there the birds of love dwell / Mikiʻala i ka nani o ka lipo ~ And sip the honey from your lips” Her most famous work, a song written by the last reigning Queen of Hawai’i ~ Queen Lili’uokalani (02 September 1838 – 11 November 1917) Queen Lili’uokalani was the last monarch, the last sovereign queen of the Kingdom of Hawai’i. She was originally named Lydia Liliu Loloku Walania Wewehi Kamaka’eha, Lydia Liliuokalani Paki, and also known as Lydia Kamakaʻeha Paki, with the chosen royal name of Liliʻuokalani. Queen Liliʻuokalani was an accomplished author and songwriter. Her book, Hawaiʻi’s Story by Hawaiʻi’s Queen, gave her view of the history of her country and her overthrow and therefore became the first Native Hawaiian female author. Liliʻuokalani was known for her musical talent. Lili’u is said to have played guitar, piano, organ, ‘ukulele and zither. She also sang alto, performing Hawaiian and English sacred and secular music. She would find herself in music. In her memoirs she wrote: “to compose was as natural to me as to breathe. This gift remains a source of the greatest consolation.” She wrote over 165 songs and chants. Some of her best-known musical compositions include the song, “Aloha ʻOe”, “The Queen’s Jubilee”, “He Mele Lahui Hawai’i”, and “Ku’u Pua I Paoakalani” ~ Source: Wikipedia !!

continuing on my holga stroll around the foreshore of the beautiful harbour in the town that I currently live….. between two stunning surf beaches is a little deep water harbour and an area of rocky laval pools and such like….. and this particular natural little rocky depression is a real favorite with bathers who don’t want to venture out in the sometimes quite heavy surf….. in this image three little kids are all clutching the one body board and dog paddling up and down in the calm luke warm water and they are having a great time…... and remember ….. it’s winter here…... oh how we suffer round these parts….... :)

Pa`ako Beach / Paako Beach / Secret Beach / Secret Cove / Wedding Beach / Makena Cove near Alanui Road Makena Maui Hawaii There are many names to describe this beautiful secluded beach east of Makena on Alanui Road bordered by lava rocks and palm trees. The wave action is extraordinary and the golden sand is luxurious. There is a large tide pool on the right of the beach which is wonderful for swimming. A favourite among the locals 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.
