The West Maui mountains were originally known as Mauna Kahalawai which means house of water. Another Hawaiian name for the mountains is Hale Mahina which means House of the Moon. It is believed that these mountains are named for the Goddess Hina of the Moon. Dan and I had the honor of this view from our balcony. Breathtaking to say the least . This photo does not do them justice, but here it is .

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . . "The question is not what you look at, but what you see" ~ Marcel Proust

What a view! I would sit out on that balcony for quite a while staring at that! Beautiful shot, Marsha.

Marsha looks like a lovely place to be nice one.

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB

Very nice photo and love the silhouette of the trees against the mountains and lovely colours of the clouds.
