We were too late to catch the first wave of color in the sky, which faded more than 20 minutes before sunrise.

But, luckily, that wasn’t our only chance, as this was one of those mornings when there was more to come.

And we caught up several dogs, including Jake, the toy poodle puppy that only recently completed his shots and was ready to be unleashed on the world. He is just a fluffy ball of excitement and energy!

The photo was taken at Waialae Beach Park, where Waialae Stream flows into Maunalua Bay.
