the taro plants in the foreground are mature. they are ready to be harvested. the finished product will be poi, well known as a staple in the hawaiian islands.

This is gorgeous Jen. Don't you just love seeing those taro fields when they are at this stage. You've certainly captured a beautiful scene here. The composition, lighting, clarity, color is just perfection. Excellent post and thanks for sharing the beauty with us.

I need to wear my glasses for these. I read your title as "almost pot" Glad it is a stiking photo of POI . Nice mountains in the background and it looks like it could rain.

I feel like I have a fieldmouse's view of this vegetable field and to get to the other side, I'm just weighing up whether to pongo-jump from leaf to leaf or take the subway route under the leaf canopy.
I love the proportions of this shot, Jen and whilst the view of the mountains and sky is terrific, I do think the way you've captured the sheer expanse of this vegetation is a stroke of genius. Great stuff!

I saw a peanut stand, heard a rubber band,
I saw a needle that winked its eye.
But I think I will have seen everything
When I see an elephant fly.

A pretty shot. Not something you always see. They are a rather pretty plant. Nice work.

A fantastic shot Jen .. perfect lighting & the mountains make an excellent backdrop. I learned so much about the taro plants when I was in Hawaii ... I happen to love poi also. Very nice composition.

Friends are like shining stars. You may not always see them, but you know they are always there for you.
I like this view: the wide fields in the foreground, and the mountain range in the back... Very nicely composed.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
Splendid, splendid, splendid! What a wonderful view. What a wonderful photo!

Never rebuke while you’re still indignant about a fault committed—wait until the next day, or even longer. Then calmly, and with a purer intention, make your reprimand. You’ll gain more by a friendly word than by a three-hour quarrel.

those leaves are so perfect, it almost looks like you painted them on! crystal clear image and the background and DOF is very good What is Poi? is it a kind of salad or do they turn the leaves into a product? well done Jen! Patti

I am still extremely busy with projects but hopefully things should slow down by the end of the summer. Please know that I appreciate you all and will stop by and visit your images as often as I can. My best to all my friends.
Sincerely,
Carrie
Terrific exposure. Quite a landscape. Looks like a setting that would lend itself to a panorama?! Another majestic shot from you that I can take a mini mind-vacation in. If Caedes in my "travel" agency than your photos are some of my favorite "destinations." (If only you could include a scratch 'n sniff component into your images I'd be set.)

This is gorgeous. The mountains with on the forefront the greenness of the plants. The cloud in the middle seems come from the mount.

I just have to say this, but this is definately one of my favorite top 5 wallpapers on this site. This image looks amazing on my moms screen, so, yeah, it's her wallpaper now. (My computer's wallpaper is reserved for a blank screen. =P ) Thanks for posting this- noah.

Why do the pictures come out square when the lens is round?? Picture Purrrfect .
This picture is awesome, and normally I think pictures of plants are boring, but this one isn't at all. Great job!
