For those of you who aren’t up early enough to watch the sunrise, or maybe are already trapped on a freeway and unable to appreciate it, here’s another bit of a typical Kaaawa morning. Nothing fancy. As usual, just click for a larger version.

A surprise in the back yard
January 29th, 2012 · No Comments · General, Kaaawa
When I’m short of cat photos for Feline Friday, I take a camera with me out into the yard in the mid-to-late afternoon. The cats follow. I feel liked the Pied Piper, with the camera as my magic instrument. The cats seem to know that they’re going to be on camera, and they enjoy it. [...]

A dramatic start to Meda’s birthday
January 22nd, 2012 · 1 Comment · Kaaawa, Photographs
Gusting winds and the threat of rain greeted us this morning as we stayed on our regular early morning schedule to celebrate Meda’s birthday. Actually, we’ve been celebrating since last weekend, when we snuck off to Maui for two days to visit with old friends from Canada. Today’s weather looked dramatic, delivered a couple of [...]

Just a hint of dawn

We were out walking on the beach in Kaaawa just a few minutes early this morning. Heavy clouds, which you can see, and strong gusts of wind, which you can’t see. You can also make out just a hint of orange on the horizon, a hint that the sun may actually be coming soon. To [...]

The clouds and vog made for some soft colors this morning. With the vog dropping a layer of haze over the mountains, it was really quite beautiful. As always, click for a larger version.

Into the New Year: The early morning walk
January 1st, 2012 · No Comments · Kaaawa, Photographs
We managed to get up and out of the house early enough to watch the sunrise on the beach, despite the disruptions of New Year’s Eve. Actually, we spent a relatively quiet night at home. “Relative” because keeping all eight cats in for the night always creates challenges. Our big end of the year meal [...]

Getting ready to say goodbye to 2011
December 30th, 2011 · No Comments · General, Kaaawa, Photographs
Another wet December morning in Kaaawa. And almost the end of another year. Notice the negative spin there? Why didn’t I say, “almost the beginning of another new year”? The latter is really the way we view the world in practice. The former is what my keyboard just produced. “Just lay down on the couch, [...]
